Summary

  • Microsoft has added two new AI tools, Researcher and Analyst, to its Microsoft 365 Copilot suite to help with research and data analysis.
  • Researcher uses OpenAI’s deep research language model combined with Microsoft’s technology to quickly gather, summarise and organise information from multiple sources.
  • Analyst turns raw data into useful information and can spot trends, make calculations and generate summaries or charts, reducing time spent on repetitive tasks and minimising errors.
  • Both tools use Microsoft’s and OpenAI’s advanced reasoning technology to interpret natural language and provide smart insights.
  • Microsoft believes the tools will help businesses work smarter and more effectively across roles and industries, bringing much-needed expertise without the need for costly additional training.
