Microsoft has introduced Microsoft 365 Copilot, an AI assistant that integrates with apps like Word, Outlook, Teams, and Excel to help automate and accelerate mundane tasks. Using OpenAI’s ChatGPT technology and natural language processing, Copilot is currently being tested with 20 enterprise customers before becoming available to a larger user base. The AI tool can be used to draft documents, emails, and speeches, create PowerPoint presentations, analyze Excel spreadsheets, catch up on work communications, and automate workflows. Although the AI may sometimes produce inaccurate results, Microsoft ensures that users can review, edit, or discard its output and confirms that Copilot follows the security, compliance, and privacy policies for Microsoft 365.
