Microsoft 365 co-pilot has evolved and it's now announcing soon for General availability
today I wanted to go over some of Microsoft's latest announcements about their AI vision and
what they're trying to do with their digital companion for your whole life hello there folks
welcome back to another video my name is Francesco and today we're going to really summarize what's
been released at the Microsoft 365 co-pilot event giving an idea what they're working on with AI if
you're interested and in the hunt for productivity tools you can jump over the tool finder to
find any productivity tool ranging from project management software all the way to smaller meeting
schedulers there's everything on tool finder and it's an expanding library of productivity
tools and we created it and we're very excited so do check it out in the link in description
so yeah Microsoft came out with this event and I'm actually covering it a little later here in the UK
but hopefully I'm able to get this video up pretty fast but essentially it's three core announcements
to their product lineup for commercial customers the first is Microsoft co-pilot and Windows Bing
chat Enterprise and Microsoft 365 co-pilot I want to talk more about the Microsoft 365 copilot but
I'll quickly summarize the commercial SKU lineup that this Microsoft co-pilot has no first off
they've got a brand new logo they've got a brand new vision they want you to be your assistant
for not only work but your whole life so really interestingly this is going to expand quite far
so first off they've got co-pilot for Windows this means it's going to be super accessible through
the taskbar and through Windows plus C on the keyboard shortcuts you can tell I'm not a Windows
user and naturally this will give you access to the ux Bing chat which is a large language
model and the web whereas they have something called Bing chat Enterprise which I'd heard of
through other stuff but essentially it builds on that Microsoft copilot you get from Windows that
adds that commercial data protection and that basically means that Microsoft has no eyes on
access and your data is not used to trained the large language models now apparently this Bing
chat Enterprise is available as a standalone for five dollars per user per month and is included
in the E3 and E5 365 options but the real Gem of this is Microsoft 365 co-pilot in my opinion you
get whatever you had in Bing chat plus Enterprise security privacy Bing Microsoft sorry Microsoft
365 chat and Microsoft 365 apps and it's basically called Microsoft 365 chat and it's it's been
called the new hero experience for 365 copilot and essentially what it will do will bring together
your 365 apps like word excel PowerPoint Outlook teams and more and basically help you to connect
your AI system to it now very simply this looks really cool and really interesting and it comes
in a wide variety of ways so I won't talk about all the different access points but in general
this experience is a way to communicate with an AI so you could start your day by asking it what your
important emails are for the day and it can bring them up with references and also allow you to see
what's happening in terms of maybe a project you're working on still opening time and then
expand that into asking questions that come from the web as well now really interestingly you can
utilize you know like word and bring together stuff by actually drafting up a piece as well
like a Blog piece on an announcement and start actually drafting an email to people and editing
it in Outlook so they want this chat function to really just take the weight out of doing some of
the pre-built work now of course that's not how copilot really finishes off it's embedded now
inside of a lot of experiences and you can find it in pretty much all of the other applications
and they're going to be rolling this out but this General availability will be available from
November 1st for all well all Enterprise customers in on November 1st and actually the pricing will
be 30 per user per month and Microsoft will give you access to uh that from November 1st now really
interesting that they also launched copilot lab which is like a training way or training center
to really take advantage of um the experience and really learn it so that your employees aren't
necessarily like bumming around with it um and they're fully getting used to it so Microsoft 365
co-pilot new logo new branding uh new core vision and interestingly skew lineup and something we'll
probably be talking about over the next couple of weeks but I just wanted to point you towards it
and explain what's new with this experience so folks hopefully you found this useful again if
you're in Hunt for productivity tools including other Microsoft products and Google products and
many many more products third-party applications from email clients to project management softwares
check out tool finder and that'll be linked below thank you folks and I'll see you soon
