Microsoft has announced a new assistant powered by artificial intelligence to help boost productivity across Microsoft 365 apps, currently being tested by select commercial customers.
Known as Copilot, the new AI feature helps create and manage documents, presentations, and spreadsheets, as well as triage and reply to emails.
Copilot is coming to all Microsoft 365 apps, from Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams to Microsoft Viva and Power Platform.
It harnesses the power of large language models with users' data in Microsoft Graph and Microsoft 365 to increase productivity.
"By grounding in your business content and context, Copilot delivers results that are relevant and actionable. Copilot marks a new era of computing that will fundamentally transform the way we work."
Copilot in PowerPoint can create presentations with a mouse click, allowing users to import contents from other documents and employ natural language commands to describe the ideas that must be included on each slide.
