Microsoft is on a mission to turn everyone into a ‘prompt engineer’ with their new updates to the CoPilot AI for Microsoft 365. This serves to make generative AI more manageable by offering suggestions to improve AI prompts, thus redefining the way we interact with technology at work.

Take aways:
CoPilot’s New Autocomplete Feature: When creating a prompt, CoPilot will offer to complete it with additional details to improve the end result. For example, if you start typing ‘summarize’, CoPilot will suggest options to summarize the last 10 unread emails in your inbox.
‘Elaborate Your Prompt’ Feature: Microsoft is working on a function that will rewrite any prompts you create to get the most out of a prompt. This comes in handy when you need CoPilot to take action on a file but are unsure of the level of detail required.
CoPilot For Teams: Microsoft 365 subscribers can create, publish, and manage prompts in CoPilot Lab that can be tailored specifically for individual teams in businesses. This serves to make sharing useful prompts among colleagues more accessible.
