Microsoft Copilot – Introduction

August 29 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

$249.00

Workshop: Using Copilot in Microsoft Applications

Duration: 3 Hours

 

Overview:

Copilot is a digital assistant embedded into Office tools that enable people to consume content impressively faster than we are used to. It helps to discover information by holistically searching for content in different repositories.

Microsoft has branded AI under different names, to mention: Bing Chat, M365 Chat, and Copilot. This will likely standardize in the future. Copilot answers could be different for everyone; content visibility and context of the prompt make the output unique. Copilot can help you quickly catch up with unattended meetings, especially when we are double/triple booked.

During a Teams meetings Copilot uses transcriptions. Transcriptions are sensitive to listening errors or misunderstanding, leading at times to inaccuracies.
