What is Microsoft 365 Copilot? First, let’s acknowledge that there are a lot of products that Microsoft is currently talking about and marketing with the word “Copilot” in their names. For instance, there’s GitHub Copilot, which is intended for developers and is not the focus of this book. There’s also Microsoft 365 Copilot for Sales, which supports an organization’s sales and customer relationship management (CRM) software but is also not within the scope of this book. Microsoft Copilot for Security is Microsoft’s solution to provide AI-assisted security assessments and recommendations for your Microsoft 365 tenant. Copilot for Windows, which Microsoft will provide free to all users who own Windows 11 (and future versions of Windows, no doubt), and Copilot for Planner, which requires a Project license, are also notable. All of these are wonderful tools, but they are not the focus of this book. So, what exactly are we talking about then? The topic of this book, Microsoft 365 Copilot, is the set of productivity-enhancing tools that Microsoft is adding to its suite of desktop applications to answer questions and provide assistance within your flow of work. As of this writing, it will appear in Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, PowerPoint, Loop, OneNote, Stream, Forms, Whiteboard, and in a web browser.
Take your Copilot proficiency to the next level with advanced AI concepts, usage monitoring, and custom development techniques. Delve into Microsoft Framework Accelerator, Copilot plugins, semantic kernels, and custom plugin development, empowering you to tailor Copilot to your organization's unique needs and workflows. Get ready to revolutionize your productivity with Microsoft 365 Copilot!
