The video below introduces Microsofts Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool called Copilot.
Copilot is the Microsoft AI (artificial intelligence) tool that you can access as part of your college 365 account. It is an additional web app that adds another level to searching the web, allowing you to direct the search by asking additional questions, like in a conversation.
You can ask Copilot both simple and complex questions; use it for research; request summaries of articles, books, the news and more. The more specific you are with your query, the more specific the results will be.
Copilot works best with Microsoft (MS)Edge browser, see below how to access Edge browser.
