Chat GPT Powered Microsoft 365 Copilot in Outlook
The Copilot feature in Outlook helps users to effectively manage their emails by separating important emails from unimportant ones. This feature can save users hours of time by prioritizing emails and summarizing long email threads. Copilot can also generate reply emails using data from Excel files and allow users to edit and customize the response before sending it. The feature is available on both desktop and mobile versions of Outlook, making it a productivity game changer.
With Outlook's Copilot at your side, you can spend less time performing email triage and more time interacting effectively, swiftly, and painlessly. You need to be able to summarize long, winding email conversations involving numerous persons so that you can grasp not just what has been said but also the various perspectives expressed and the unanswered questions that remain. Use a simple hint to respond to an existing email or transform your scribbled notes into polished, well-written correspondence by drawing on material and messages from across Microsoft 365. Use knobs to change the volume or the duration of your note. You can try out the following commands and prompts as examples:
- Give me a rundown of the emails I missed last week while I was away. Note anything that needs special attention.
- Write a thank-you note, addressing their first point and asking for clarification on their second and third, keeping the tone businesslike and shortening the draft.
- Have a "lunch and learn" next Thursday at noon to discuss upcoming product launches. Make note that you'll be offered a meal.
