Power Automate, a low-code automation platform, is expanding its AI capabilities with the introduction of AI Builder and Copilot. In 2022, Power Automate released the 'Describe it to design it' feature, reducing the time taken to create workflows by 50% and increasing their use by 1.8 times. 
Copilot, the next-generation AI in Power Automate, is designed to improve and iterate on workflows with AI-driven conversations.
 
The tool will be situated in the flow studio and will assist users in building or altering flows. It allows for open-ended, conversational interactions during workflow authoring. 
The system is also moving toward natural language authoring, enabling users to build and enhance everything from simple flows to complex enterprise-wide processes using just natural language. The goal is to make automation accessible to everyone, regardless of their knowledge of Power Automate. 
 
 
 
In addition to Copilot, Power Automate also introduced AI Builder, which integrates the Azure OpenAI Service. This enables makers to use a new low-code generative AI model and templates in Power Automate cloud flows. Moreover, users can use generative AI in apps with a next-generation control, and in Power Automate for the desktop. 
 
A new AI Builder action, 'Create text with GPT,' is now available for desktop flows, paralleling the existing functionality in cloud flows.
 

Moving Forward with AI in Power Automate

With AI integrated into Power Automate, we can expect a substantial increase in efficiency and productivity. Features like a mini-map for better navigation and a new designer for improved usability make AI a critical part of Power Automate. Furthermore, it provides a broad range of templates and enables customization of the same, making it a versatile addition to the platform.
