Copilot in Teams (March 2024)
What can Copilot in Teams do?
Copilot combines the power of large language models (LLMs) with Teams data to provide summaries and answer questions in real-time to help you stay productive in the workplace.
Chats:
The system summarizes chat messages. Its inputs are messages from the conversation it is invoked from, and its outputs are a high-level summary and key takeaways. When opened, Copilot automatically provides a default summary based on the most recent conversation history. Users can also choose to summarize the last 1, 7 and 30 days of conversation. The user can enter a query (suggested or free text) and Copilot will generate answers based on the chat history. Common use cases are summarizing the chat and getting answers to questions such as the decisions that were made or open items.
Meetings:
Copilot for meetings is based on the meeting transcript, so it will work only if the meeting is recorded or transcribed. The user can enter a query (suggested or free text) at any time during or after the meeting, and Copilot will generate answers based on the transcript. Common uses are generating meeting notes and action items, giving answers to various questions, listing main ideas discussed, listing unresolved questions and more.
