0.266 -> For more than two decades, I've had the privilege to work on our core productivity apps,
5.839 -> Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook.
9.709 -> In fact, my first line of code at the company was in Excel,
13.98 -> and I'm so excited to show you how Microsoft 365 Copilot is coming to life
20.754 -> in the products millions of people use and rely on every day.
27.36 -> What if the tools could learn how you work rather than the other way around?
31.965 -> Copilot unlocks all the richness of these apps through natural language.
38.104 -> Let's start with a real life example, like a high school graduation.
42.042 -> My daughter recently graduated from high school, so this is really top of mind for me.
47.28 -> Let's say I want to throw her an amazing graduation party.
52.185 -> To start, I need to send an invitation to family and friends.
56.456 -> So let's put Copilot to work.
58.792 -> With a few simple prompts, Copilot understands everything it needs to know
63.83 -> to generate a great first draft of the invitation.
67.901 -> It's even able to pull in details about the venue from an email I received last week.
73.807 -> Now I have a draft invite that includes the basic information.
79.212 -> I can edit this,
80.58 -> I can ask my guests to share funny stories and give them a link where they can upload photos.
86.586 -> Now, I think this first draft is a little wordy,
89.422 -> so let's make it more concise.
94.027 -> With that done, this is my opportunity to create a loving and,
98.198 -> let's be honest, a little embarrassing slideshow to celebrate the occasion.
103.203 -> I kick things off with Copilot, providing a little information to get started.
108.141 -> I add some details about my daughter.
112.645 -> I can also change the style so we create something fun and festive
118.351 -> and Copilot goes to work finding the right words
122.122 -> and searching my OneDrive for the best photos.
125.792 -> In seconds, Copilot generates a beautiful presentation
130.73 -> with memories, accomplishments, and advice for the future.
134.534 -> I can add my own personal touches to it and Copilot will be at my side.
139.072 -> Now let's look at this slide.
140.707 -> I'm really happy with the design,
142.375 -> but Copilot didn't quite have what it needed, so I'm going to rework the text.
147.714 -> I can then ask Copilot to make it more concise and add images.
152.452 -> Okay, now that looks great.
155.188 -> On this next slide, there's a part that Copilot didn't quite get right,
158.791 -> so I'll rewrite it so that it sounds a little bit more like me.
164.497 -> I also want to use a different image here,
166.466 -> so I'll just tell Copilot what I want, and Copilot will find it.
170.904 -> I can add transitions between the slides, which I always forget,
175.041 -> so that when I play the presentation, it looks really polished.
179.679 -> Okay, I like how that turned out.
182.982 -> Now, I don't know about you, but PowerPoint animations have never been my strong suit.
188.588 -> I love that I can do this on my own.
192.725 -> The average person uses less
195.361 -> than 10% of what PowerPoint can do.
199.065 -> Copilot unlocks the other 90%.
203.169 -> Now on to party planning.
205.738 -> I'll start with a few details about the event and once again, Copilot goes to work.
211.044 -> With a simple prompt
212.445 -> it creates pages for everything I need to think about to plan this party.
217.884 -> Let’s say I want to put this plan in a simple to do list.
222.188 -> Boom.
223.289 -> Done.
226.159 -> I'm thinking about what I want to say to my daughter on her big day.
231.164 -> Copilot can get me started on a speech.
234.968 -> I'm not sure how long I want it to be, but let's start with 3 minutes.
239.939 -> I know I want to tell her how proud I am, acknowledge how hard she's worked,
244.41 -> how inspired I am by her volunteer efforts, and what a wonderful leader she is.
250.783 -> Here's a great first draft.
254.554 -> Now, here's an important thing about Copilot.
257.19 -> At this point, I decide whether
260.426 -> to keep this draft, modify it, or discard it completely.
264.764 -> This is a big change in how people interact with software.
270.403 -> Okay, so this looks pretty good.
272.405 -> But let's add some of the funny stories I collected from friends and family.
277.977 -> Let's give it a minute.
281.481 -> I can make these stories more playful and add more,
284.851 -> but I actually want to make them a bit shorter.
287.587 -> Let's get to the punchline, right?
289.355 -> There, much better.
291.524 -> Now, this looks pretty good,
292.925 -> but I really want to add my own personal touch, so I am going to edit it.
297.53 -> You can see that throughout the writing process, I am always in control.
303.236 -> Now I want to quickly format it to make sure I nail the delivery
307.607 -> and Copilot automatically adjusts the spacing, making it easier for me to read
313.98 -> and adds speaker cues to help me improve my delivery.
318.017 -> Let's shift gears into business mode.
320.687 -> You saw how Copilot saves me time as a working mom,
325.291 -> but the real power of Copilot is in how it unleashes creativity at work.
332.965 -> Imagine you're
334.067 -> leading a team at a global manufacturing company and you want to create
338.471 -> a rock solid customer proposal and you don't have time for writer's block.
343.676 -> Let's see how Copilot can use your customer notes in OneNote,
348.181 -> as well as another internal document.
351.851 -> Copilot quickly creates a first draft.
356.289 -> Now, you probably want this to look like your previous proposals.
361.928 -> Copilot can give you a draft
364.397 -> in the format you typically use.
367.834 -> It inserts product images and pulls in relevant visuals from other files.
373.473 -> You can even include a short summary at the top of the document
378.811 -> and Copilot can make suggestions to strengthen the proposal,
382.982 -> like adding an FAQ, which it will generate for you.
388.087 -> Now remember, you're not going to send this off to a customer without a thorough review.
393.993 -> But Copilot still saved you tons of time in the process.
399.832 -> It's time to get ready for your customer pitch meeting.
403.97 -> Now, everyone has
405.538 -> had a moment when they wish they could turn their proposal into a customer
410.276 -> ready presentation without having to start from scratch.
414.747 -> Well, guess what?
416.349 -> Now you can.
418.484 -> Copilot can turn your Word document into a PowerPoint presentation.
424.157 -> Now you have a professional looking presentation that you can hone and polish.
429.662 -> This is truly amazing.
432.432 -> Using just your words, Copilot translates
436.369 -> Word into PowerPoint and PowerPoint into Word.
440.006 -> Now let's add a slide and give Copilot some quick instructions.
444.877 -> There it goes.
446.479 -> Ready for you to review.
449.148 -> Now, this slide is a little bit wordy.
452.084 -> Let's ask Copilot to make it more visual.
455.721 -> And check this out.
458.124 -> Copilot can even animate the slide.
461.627 -> It gives it a professional design treatment in a single click, but it doesn't stop there.
467.166 -> Copilot can even generate speaker notes.
470.57 -> I am serious. Speaker notes.
473.739 -> It's not only a time saver, it's helping me be a better presenter and close this deal.
480.58 -> Let's jump into Copilot in Excel.
483.516 -> Copilot puts all the rich
486.252 -> capabilities of Excel at your fingertips.
490.723 -> Say you need to analyze this quarter's sales results.
495.127 -> You start by asking Copilot to analyze the data and give you three key trends.
501 -> Within seconds, you've got what you need, but you want to drill in.
505.471 -> You ask Copilot a follow up question about one of the trends.
509.642 -> Copilot creates a new sheet.
512.011 -> This new sheet creates a sandbox to play in to better understand what's going on
517.617 -> without modifying the data in the original sheet.
522.522 -> This is a great example of how Copilot up levels
526.492 -> your skills, showing you how to break down the problem step-by-step.
531.864 -> You ask Copilot to visualize what contributed to the decline in sales growth this period.
538.137 -> Copilot adds a little color to make the problem jump off the page.
542.642 -> Now you want to dig deeper and ask a follow up question.
548.748 -> Copilot not only answers your question,
551.884 -> it creates a simple model of the scenario
556.155 -> and it even asks you if you want to learn more about what it did
560.493 -> with a step-by-step breakdown.
563.996 -> Finally, you can ask it to create a graph of your projected model.
569.101 -> Copilot turned a sea of data into clear insights and actions.
