The service helps companies handle routine tasks while encouraging broader adoption of AI technologies.Copilot Chat, powered by OpenAI's GPT-4, lets users set up AI agents in natural languages like English and Mandarin.
These agents tackle tasks such as market analysis, crafting strategy documents, and prepping for meetings.Some advanced features, like transcribing Teams meetings or building PowerPoint slides, come with a $30 monthly Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
Microsoft continues to push AI adoption as it looks to justify its massive investments in the field. The company plans to spend about $80 billion this fiscal year on data centers and AI infrastructure.
To simplify AI adoption, Microsoft now allows customers to create autonomous agents that need little human input, a strategy analysts view as a smarter way to monetize the technology.
