Microsoft 365 Co-Pilot is an artificial intelligence assistant feature designed for Microsoft 365 applications and services such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams. It was announced on March 16, 2023 and is built on OpenAI's GPT-4 large language models (LLMs). Microsoft 365 Co-Pilot incorporates Microsoft Graph to convert user text input into content within these applications. Initially, it was tested by 20 users and by May 2023, Microsoft expanded access to 600 customers who were willing to pay for early access. During the Build 2023 conference, Microsoft announced that it was integrating Co-Pilot with Windows 11, making it accessible through the taskbar.

Here are some of the capabilities of Microsoft 365 Co-Pilot across various applications:

  1. Word: Co-Pilot can generate and edit text in Word documents based on user prompts. It can also provide suggestions to rewrite and strengthen the arguments in highlighted texts.

  2. Excel: Co-Pilot can assist users with data analysis in Excel spreadsheets by formatting data, creating graphs, generating PivotTables, identifying trends, and summarizing information. It can guide users using Excel commands and suggest formulas to answer user questions.

  3. PowerPoint: Co-Pilot can create PowerPoint presentations that summarize information from user-selected Word documents and Excel spreadsheets or a user prompt. It can adjust the presentation style, text formatting, and animation timing based on user prompts to eliminate the need for the user to make manual changes. Co-Pilot is also able to shorten lengthy presentations.

  4. Outlook: Co-Pilot can draft emails with varying length and tone based on user input. To draft these emails, Co-Pilot can pull relevant information from other emails. It is also able to summarize content from email threads, noting the viewpoints of individuals involved in the email threads and pointing out questions posed by others that have yet to be answered.

  5. Teams: Co-Pilot can be used in Teams to present information for upcoming meetings, transcribe meetings, and provide debriefs if users join the meeting late. After the meeting, Co-Pilot can also summarize discussion points, list key actions deliberated in the meeting, and answer questions that were covered in the meeting.

In addition to these, Microsoft has also introduced Business Chat, a chat interface that pulls information from content across all Microsoft 365 apps to answer user questions and perform other tasks. OneNote will use prompts to draft plans, generate ideas, create lists and organize information to help customers find what they need easily. Viva Learning will use a natural language chat interface to help users create a personalized learning journey including designing upskilling paths, discovering relevant learning resources, and scheduling time for assigned trainings.

Why Trusting Your Co-Pilot Is Important
