Microsoft has launched new AI-assisted features to boost productivity across the Microsoft 365 apps.
Copilot has been revamped to create collaborative documents known as 'Pages', which enable users to expand and edit on relevant search results from web or work knowledge.
Microsoft Office’s new narrative builder in PowerPoint can create presentations based on a prompt using Copilot, complete with transitions and speaker notes.
Excel can do forecasting, risk analysis, and complex data visualizations with Python, using natural language prompts in Copilot.
The new feature 'Prioritise My Inbox' uses AI to summarise and present the most urgent or relevant emails in Outlook.
OneDrive enables Copilot to analyze, reason, summarize and compare up to five files.
New suggested prompts help users create documents using Copilot assistance in Microsoft Word.
Microsoft will be rolling out the Pages feature to the more than 400 million users of the free version of Copilot via Microsoft Entra Account later this month.
The new features will be made available in the public preview versions later this month.
Users can also interact with Copilot agents to automate business processes, which can respond just like a human team member.
