For example, in Word, Copilot writes, edits, summarizes and generates text, while in PowerPoint and Excel, Copilot turns natural language commands into designed presentations and data visualizations.Ĭopilot in Excel can also reveal correlations, propose what-if scenarios and suggest new formulas based on users’ questions, Microsoft says - generating models based on these questions.

“With our new copilot for work, we’re giving people more agency and making technology more accessible through the most universal interface - natural language.”Ĭopilot handles different tasks depending on the app in which it’s used. “Today marks the next major step in the evolution of how we interact with computing, which will fundamentally change the way we work and unlock a new wave of productivity growth,” Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said in a statement. Currently in testing with select (around 20) commercial customers, Copilot combines the power of AI models including OpenAI’s recently announced GPT-4 with business data and Microsoft 365 apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams. During an AI-focused press event today, Microsoft unveiled Microsoft 365 Copilot, its latest push to embed its suite of productivity and enterprise apps with AI.
