Harness the power of AI with Microsoft Copilot

The rise of AI is reshaping everything around us, impacting every aspect of our lives. As technology evolves, businesses are looking to leverage AI to deliver data-driven insights, in-depth automation and enhanced decision-making. The accessibility of machine learning has given businesses the ability to harness data like never before. AI’s rise has reshaped how businesses operate, innovate, and succeed, and anyone that seizes its potential has the opportunity to gain a competitive edge in an ever-evolving landscape.

At the beginning of this year, Microsoft announced their latest innovation – Copilot. Microsoft Copilot combines the power of large language models (LLMs) with business's data to, as Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella states, “Revolutionise how people operate fundamentally and unleash a new wave of productivity increase”.

Microsoft Copilot has been designed to enhance user productivity by integrating GPT and LLM with Microsoft’s suite of tools. The integration allows Copilot to generate items such as suggestions and visualisations based purely on the user's work within that tool.
