Microsoft is bringing more Copilot functionality to the Office 365 suite of applications. These new AI integrations are designed to make your life better from building PowerPoint presentations to prioritizing your Outlook inbox.

Copilot in PowerPoint is also getting improvements, with an improved narrative builder that’s designed to let you quickly create a first draft of a slide deck. The AI assistant will even soon use a company’s branded template to create drafts or company-approved images from SharePoint libraries.

Microsoft has today announced Copilot Pages, a new persistent canvas in Microsoft Business Chat that enables “multiplayer AI collaboration.” Designed for business use, Copilot Pages will tap into your organizations data and allow colleagues to work together in the same space with Copilot ready to assist.

Despite our protestations, Microsoft is determined to make AI tools in the workplace accessible and appealing with a raft of new improvements across its Microsoft 365 (M365) suite of productivity tools.

Microsoft is planning to allow Windows 11 users to customize the Copilot key that has started shipping on new laptops and keyboards. The Copilot key is configured as default to launch Microsoft’s Copilot app on Windows 11, but the company is now testing the ability to use it to launch other apps instead.

Microsoft is aiming to address skepticism about the value of AI in its flagship productivity applications — and justify the premium price for business users — with a new wave of features for Microsoft 365 Copilot.
