00:00:02

Copilot with the Microsoft 365 chat

00:00:06

application offers a real daily assistant

00:00:08

that can be solicited directly while

00:00:11

connected to your Microsoft account and

00:00:14

also directly in Teams conversations.

00:00:18

This conversational mode will

00:00:20

require the selection of prompts from

00:00:22

the homepage or the Copilot Lab,

00:00:24

allowing you to have proposed templates

00:00:27

filterable according to your needs.

00:00:29

I advise you to take a look.

00:00:30

If copilot is new to you,

00:00:33

the most interesting prompts can

00:00:35

be favourited for easier access.

00:00:37

In our case, to have a global vision,

00:00:39

we will focus on prompts entered

00:00:42

manually in the message area.

00:00:44

The different conversations and

00:00:47

past interactions remain accessible

00:00:50

in chronological order via the

00:00:52

three dot menu then copilot chat.

00:00:55

Let's see what's possible to do.

00:00:56

Initially,

00:00:56

I would like to have the list of

00:00:59

meetings I attended last week.

00:01:00

I enter my prompt in the message

00:01:02

area and copilot generates the

00:01:04

chronological list with the names

00:01:06

of participants and projects.

00:01:08

I've blurred some information

00:01:09

here for confidentiality reasons.

00:01:11

I can also ask the assistant for an

00:01:13

overview of all future meetings.

00:01:15

By default,

00:01:16

the list consists of the next 10 meetings.

00:01:18

Of course,

00:01:19

I can express the wish to see

00:01:21

more by simply asking for it.

00:01:23

Before contacting one of my colleagues,

00:01:25

I would like to view a summary

00:01:27

of the exchanges we have had,

00:01:28

whether via teams or e-mail.

00:01:30

As before,

00:01:31

I express my request simply and concisely,

00:01:34

copilot does the rest.

00:01:35

It's exactly the same if I want to stay

00:01:38

informed about my direct colleagues,

00:01:39

where I can once again simply request

00:01:41

to stay up to date on the projects

00:01:44

or subjects they are working on.

00:01:46

I can also use Co pilot's

00:01:48

conversational mode on general topics.

00:01:50

Here I need to stock our company library

00:01:53

by buying books less than 10 years old.

00:01:56

I specify here that I want books on

00:01:58

management and quality of life at work.

00:02:02

The range of requests I can make

00:02:04

is quite broad, as here where

00:02:06

I ask for the role of Julianne,

00:02:08

a colleague in the company.

00:02:09

Co pilot's foundation,

00:02:10

is search and results across all

00:02:12

content it will find and analyse in my

00:02:15

Microsoft professional environment.

00:02:17

Another example is asking the assistant

00:02:19

for Icebreaker ideas to liven up

00:02:22

meetings between colleagues or here

00:02:24

generating a song in honour of my

00:02:26

colleague who is leaving the company.

00:02:28

Like any good assistant,

00:02:29

copilot can also help me and

00:02:32

offer other interactions.

00:02:34

Let's take the meetings.

00:02:35

I have not yet specified whether

00:02:37

or not I will be present.

00:02:39

Once the list is generated,

00:02:41

the assistant offers to help me

00:02:42

detail the first meeting on the list.

00:02:44

I can use the suggested prompt

00:02:46

or respond in the conversation.

00:02:48

Copilot even offers to draft

00:02:51

an e-mail response.

00:02:53

One last example for the geeks

00:02:55

among us generating programming

00:02:57

language codes in VBA for Excel

00:02:59

with a macro that deletes empty rows

00:03:01

from a table or a Python program to

00:03:04

read the contents of an XML file.

00:03:06

To further expand the possibilities

00:03:08

offered by Copilot,

00:03:09

Plug Insurance can be activated.

00:03:11

However,

00:03:12

the list and the ability to activate

00:03:14

them will depend on your company's policy.

00:03:16

Thus,

00:03:17

this provides A brief overview of

00:03:20

Microsoft 365 Chat your copilot for work.
