Copilot Microsofts Foray in the AI Race
While AI is no closer to becoming Skynet and
taking over the world, it has become an integral
part of personal and business life. Post ChatGPT
success, companies are rushing to create their
own AI models. Google came up with Bard, a
direct competitor to ChatGPT which was disastrous
in the first public demo, leading to a massive
drop in the companys stock value. Is Microsofts
AI model, Copilot, doomed to a similar fate?
What is Microsoft 365 Copilot?
Microsoft 365 is a slew of globally favored
business productivity apps, such as Word, Excel,
Teams, and more. According to Statista, over a
million companies worldwide use Microsoft 365.
Microsoft 365 Copilot aims to revolutionize the
services of Microsoft 365 by integrating AI
across the entire 365 ecosystem.

It integrates with the data in Microsoft Graph
and Microsoft 365 to increase productivity
in considerably less time. Consider this
scenario you are required to write a
comprehensive sales report based on a sales
Excel sheet sent by your sales team. You can
easily give Copilot a natural language prompt
like Write a sales report based on the sales
Excel sheet. Copilot will go through
Microsoft 365 apps and Microsoft Graph to
seamlessly deliver a comprehensive, accurate, and
human-like sales report.
How will Microsoft 365 Copilot Fare in the AI
Race?
All eyes are on Microsofts Copilot, which will
be available for enterprise customers on November
1, 2023. Will Microsofts AI Powerhouse give the
AI chatbots a run for their money? Copilot can
become a significant, everyday AI assistant that
increases productivity. Copilot can take over
redundant tasks, allowing you to focus more on
work that matters. If what Microsoft has planned
with Copilot is brought to fruition without any
hiccups, Copilot has the potential to dominate
the AI market. About Ciente ?
