Really useful to Get started as the thumbnail suggest. Thank you so much..

[rajeshbhosale]

Thank you for providing such a comprehensive overview of MS Copilot, Andy. Your insights are incredibly helpful and informative.

Take its results with a MASSIVE pinch of salt. We're still testing it and it transcribed a meeting I was in. It said "Steve said there is an issue with the phone system and he'll fix it shortly". 1. There was nothing wrong with the phone system. 2. I never said that, it just made the whole bit up.

9:58 Also would be good to point out its flaws and that its not perfect, because its clear its not.

I am from brazil and I am really astonished with those infinite possibilities

[micharuta]

Great content, but record a video about what Copilot can do in excel.

[eointhomas]

The email one was a good example, not sure many companies would be happy with this AI reading through their emails

[lifeslooker]

what benefits does Copilot offer in terms of Excel/ Sharepoint/ etc? Same as the other connected apps? What are the security concerns regarding gaining info from other sources ( cause this is what it does as this is AI, like chatgpt )

[patriklemos]

Great Video! Question please, is It works from webapps only?

[MuhammadAhmedMuddie]

Thanks, sir, for this... but I have issues in my CoPilot main chat, and in Excel and PowerPoint especially... I can not see the "add file" button option... which is sad... yes, I am a pro user and have 365 sub. Please help! 🙏

[jojolization]

really wanted to learn more about it, however, I can't convince my company to buy a copilot license (even 1 license for the pilot test) as this is quite expensive. How i can tackle it and try this feature personally?

[estu]

isn't it a bit expensive? seems to me it is... a 365 licence for business is 12.50 a month standard, and this is a 30 dollar "add-on"? is that right? not sure many businesses will see the value of it per user (especially since most users won't use it...)

[CalifornianViking]

Imagine all the time we can waste (not just save) on this.
Great summary - thanks for creating the video. Also, very interesting technology I am a big user of LLMs.
However, this stuff is very destructive in the wrong hands. Co-pilot needs to ask more questions before generating content that will consume everyone's time. For documents and presentations it should ask about your objectives, who the audience is, what the audience's objectives are, etc.
We can easily get on a path where GenAI is creating garbage that is consuming all of humanity's time.

[lifeslooker]

So, Copilot is Clippy on LOL
Looks lik an awesome tool

[Aichauer]

can i use my own masters or templates in powerpoint together with copilot?

[zullorealty]

How do you use it just for your information and keep private. You said we can pull from web if want. Can I stop info from being shared to web

[maximrybchenko]

It is all good, but in word online wrap text doesn't work, you can't make it behind the text and in front of text.

[Douglas_Hamilton]

To be honest, $30 per user/month is a lot for Copilot to help me write a document or a PPT. There must be much more value than that. Unfortunately, all the presentations on YT are about these trivial benefits.

[Jonya]

It should be given free to the subscriber of 365

[TayschrennSedai]

Now, how do we disable it globally on all systems and applications to ensure our IP/ITAR is protected without paying Microsoft for additional charges like our own Ai instance. I see these and laugh out loud at all the companies going for CMMC that are being forced to pay extra because Microsoft doesn't make things easy or even possible to disable it not enable in the first place.
