Pushing Uptake of Copilot as a Personal Assistant
The news was shared at Microsoft Ignite 2024 and by Jared Spataro, Chief Marketing Officer of AI at Work in a blog laying out what other AI improvements we can expect in the coming months.
Alongside the interpreter options, Teams users will be able to use Copilot to get a recap of the visual content shared onscreen during a call, as well as the chat history and transcript. Spataro adds:
“You can also ask Copilot for a quick summary of a file shared in a chat to get all its main points without having to open the file.”
There are also updates for PowerPoint users – and the option to translate entire presentations into one of 40 languages, without changing the overall design of each slide.
Copilot in Outlook will also now make it easier for users to schedule meetings with colleagues by comparing your calendars to find a mutually suitable time for both parties and it can draft a meeting agenda ahead of time.
AI is playing a growing role in bolstering Microsoft’s profits so it makes sense that the company will integrate it into all of its offerings, and its enterprise tools are sure to change dramatically as a result.
