Impactful Individualgetting the full copilot experience
1) they can get the Dsktop Copilot experience if they have access to a Premium workspace on which the CoPilot workloads can run
2) see #1. Plus, the tenant admin must have enabled the feature on their side accordingly.
Impactful Individualdumb question, can a person with pro be given access to a prem ws? might a good strategy be to have one prem ws where such users can have permissions even if they are from different biz areas, for the sole purpose of getting the full copilot experience down on the desktop? im assuming they could publish a report rolled by copilot and fine tuned by themselves to a non prem ws. and the economics would make sense?

Yes, anyone inside a tenant can be given access to a Premium or Fabric workspace in that tenant. There are various roles availabe, the Viewer role doesn't even require a Pro license. (more precisely certain read-only activities on a workspace do not require the user to have a Pro license)
Yes, you could have a "dumpster" workspace where everybody could run their CoPilot workloads. Microsoft don't care as you pay for the CUs either way.

thx, what about the econmomics of a dumpster premium ws? vs just giving those in need a prem license? or maybe a prem license isnt sufficient anyway? and canthey publish where they choose after copilot rolls the broad strokes for them? and they add the fine strokes?

Be careful not to mash the two things - there are "Pro" licenses and "Premium/Fabric" workspaces. They are separate cost centers.
So "give them a prem license" is not a thing.
