How Does Copilot Work?
Copilot uses a large language model trained on billions of texts from various sources. When you give Copilot a prompt, it tries to create an appropriate response by analyzing its entire database. Copilot produces the response in text form as a chatbot, which allows for asking clarifying questions.
Microsoft 365 Copilot can utilize Microsoft Graph and the data and functions of all Microsoft 365 applications your organization has access to. It can then create information relevant to your organization. Copilot does not use your organization's data to train the language model. It also adheres to your organization's security, privacy, and compliance policies.
How To Use Copilot?
Copilot can be used for almost any computer-based work. You can start a conversation with Copilot by writing or speaking to it. You can ask Copilot anything such as facts, information, advice, suggestions, or inspiration. You can also request Copilot to create content like factual texts, stories, code, and much more.
Copilot tries to respond to you as well as it can and helps you do more and better.
With Copilot, you can also utilize Microsoft 365 applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Teams. For example, you can ask Copilot to open, edit, share, or save files, create presentations, send emails or messages, or perform other tasks.
Copilot can also use Microsoft Graph. Microsoft Graph is a programming interface that combines information and functions of Microsoft's cloud services. For example, you can ask Copilot to fetch information, manage user and device permissions, or create content using Microsoft Graph, leveraging your organization's data.
You can manage Copilot's settings in the Copilot application, available for the Windows 11 operating system. For example, you can adjust Copilot's tone of voice, language, and personality. You can also provide feedback to Copilot if you want to improve its performance or suggest new features.
