This is now (more) dated. Copilots as an interface are dated. The current initiative is full agents with human in the loop at the very start, occasionally the middle and the end.

Huds are just good UI, something copilots can natively exist as part of in the form of contextual insights and alerts.

We’re moving on to agency where it’s everything else vs an entirely different entity taking the action of flying the plane from take off to landing.

I don't think you understood what a "copilot" and a "HUD" is. Confusingly, GitHub Copilot (the original one that suggests completions) is basically a HUD. On the other hand, agents that you give a task are clearly copilots that work via a natural language interface.

The article also mentions that agents are copilots:
