The company announced Copilot Pages, a dynamic and persistent canvas designed for multiplayer AI collaboration. It is the first new digital artifact for the AI ​​era.

“Second, we are rapidly improving Copilot in Microsoft 365 apps. Our customers tell us that Copilot in Microsoft Teams has changed meetings forever. “We’re excited to do the same with advanced data analysis in Microsoft Excel, dynamic storytelling in PowerPoint, managing your inbox in Outlook, and more,” said Jared Spataro, corporate vice president of AI at Work.

Microsoft also introduced Copilot agents, making it easier and faster than ever to automate and execute business processes on behalf of the user.

“We will continue to rapidly bring the latest models to Copilot and rapidly improve the product based on your feedback, adding new capabilities and new models, including OpenAI o1 with advanced reasoning,” Spataro added.

Copilot Pages takes “AI-generated ephemeral content” and makes it long-lasting, so you can edit it, add to it, and share it with others.

You and your team can work collaboratively on a page with Copilot, seeing everyone's work in real time and iterating with Copilot as a partner, adding more content from your data, files, and the web to your page.

“This is a completely new pattern of working: multiplayer collaboration, from human to AI to human. For Microsoft 365 Copilot customers, Pages begins rolling out today and will be generally available later in September 2024,” the company reported.

In the coming weeks, the company will also bring Copilot Pages to the more than 400 million people who have free access to Microsoft Copilot.

The tech giant also announced Copilot in Excel with Python, which combines the power of Python (one of the world's most popular programming languages ​​for working with data) with Copilot in Excel.

Anyone can work with Copilot to perform advanced analytics such as forecasting, risk analysis, machine learning and complex data visualization, all using natural language, with no coding required, the company said.

It also introduced Copilot agents: artificial intelligence assistants designed to automate and execute business processes, working with or for humans.
