During today’s “The Future of Working with AI” presentation, Microsoft announced key news from ChatGPT and additional AI-enabled features. This time, the Copilot feature has appeared in programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams.
On Thursday afternoon, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and Microsoft 365 CEO Jared Spataro hosted the Future of Working with AI event.
The company previously announced that it would showcase features at the event that would “redefine productivity with AI.” That’s a big promise, but Microsoft previously introduced a rather revolutionary combination of ChatuGPT with the Bing search engine and the MS Edge browser.
The Future of AI – ChatGPT News from Microsoft
The broadcast began with a general announcement by Spataro, who promised viewers a “completely new way of working” based on artificial intelligence. As the manager noted, this will allow all employees to work more creatively and not focus on boring routine.
Spataro announced the Microsoft 365 Copilot feature, an artificial intelligence helper service known from Bing and the Edge browser. Programs such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams will soon receive many new AI features.
A representative of Microsoft showed the work of AI with an example, in this case she wanted to organize a special event for her daughter’s graduation.
The show started by automatically generating event invitations right in Outlook. The user can, among other things, adjust the length of the letter with one click, add links or photos, and generate a preliminary list of invited guests from our contacts.
Creating a presentation with photos for an event is not a problem, because AI will automatically fill the slides with both content and images. The user can change each element and indicate to artificial intelligence where he does not like the result or rewrite text fragments himself. All commands on Copilot are issued in the menu on the right, as in Edge.
Microsoft 365 Copilot – Automated Business Offers
The next presentation was about using Copilot at work. Microsoft offers here, among other things, the automation of the creation of summaries and commercial proposals, which may include, for example, a preliminary budget, implementation schedule and other necessary elements that until now had to be created manually. Then the finished document can be turned into a presentation for the client in a few clicks.
Copilot can also analyze spreadsheets in Excel. You can ask the AI about the three most important trends seen in the collected data. AI can ask more questions, asking about models and opportunities or implications of different business strategies.
Outlook can summarize long emails, indicate which emails in a full mailbox are the most important, and automatically generate replies.
ChatGPT is just one element of the Copilot system. Its basic parts are Microsoft 365 Apps, the Microsoft Graph system, and the Large Langue Model artificial intelligence, that is, the text creation functions known from ChatGPT. The co-pilot is the element that connects all the components to “work like magic”.
