Microsoft has announced new capabilities for its Copilot AI add-on for Microsoft 365 productivity applications. Copilot can show personalized action items from missed meetings, prepare draft PowerPoint presentations, create illustrations, generate forecasts, and offer a chat feature to summarize unread email messages and recommend changes. The new Copilot Studio service will allow users to enrich Copilot's knowledge with data from business software. Microsoft is extending the feature list while maintaining the $30 per person per month price, despite concerns about the cost. Early users of Copilot, including Visa employees, have expressed satisfaction with the tool.
