Microsoft 365 Copilot – Your AI-powered productivity tool
Microsoft 365 Copilot offers users access to real-time intelligence that significantly enhances their ability to perform tasks with greater efficiency. This innovative tool not only boosts productivity but also aids in the development of users’ skills, ultimately leading to an improved overall work experience. From a business perspective, it delivers content that is directly relevant to users’ specific work tasks, such as drafting documents, summarizing information, and responding to inquiries. All of this functionality is seamlessly integrated into the context of their activities within various Microsoft 365 applications.
In essence, Microsoft 365 Copilot serves as a sophisticated coordinator of large language models (LLMs), which are advanced algorithms in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). These LLMs utilize deep learning techniques along with extensive data sets to effectively understand, summarize, predict, and generate various types of content.
Among these LLMs are pretrained models, such as Generative Pre-Trained Transformers (GPT), including the latest iterations like GPT-4, which are specifically designed to excel in these diverse tasks.
Additionally, Microsoft 365 Copilot leverages content available in Microsoft Graph, which encompasses emails, chats, and documents that users have been granted permission to access. This feature enhances its functionality by ensuring that the tool can draw from a comprehensive range of resources.
Furthermore, Microsoft 365 Copilot is designed to work in conjunction with the Microsoft 365 productivity applications that users interact with on a daily basis. These applications include popular tools such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and numerous others, making it an invaluable asset in the modern workplace.
