Is Copilot for Microsoft 365 already available for school accounts ?
- GabeHoFormer EmployeeHey Andre, nothing announced yet on availability with Microsoft 365 A3 or A5, but more to come.
- Do you have any predictions regarding the rate of adoption of the M365 Copilot in the SMB segment, once it becomes available?
- DanNarlochFormer EmployeeWe're excited about the adoption of Copilot for Microsoft 365! We've recently announced a lot of new information on the Work Trend Index (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/worklab/work-trend-index/copilots-earliest-users-teach-us-about-generative-ai-at-work) on learnings from our early adopters. We'll have more to share more about availability in SMB in early 2024, and excited to bring the exciting Copilot product to all customers.
- Thanks, Dan, I will study the WTI report you posted, it looks more than intereting.
- MiloradBrass ContributorI have another question regarding Copilot Studio. Is it possible to create a chatbot, let’s say, for introducing new employees to what the company does? Can data for that chatbot be uploaded from Word documents and PDF files directly from SPO?
- GabeHoFormer Employee
Yes it's possible to design a copilot through Copilot Studio to reason over a specific data set, including a specific SharePoint site. Here's more documentation on Copilot Studio.
- MiloradBrass ContributorDoes Microsoft 365 Copilot accept inputs in languages other than English, and is it currently possible to write prompts and get results in different languages? For example, if my tenant is filled with Word documents in Greek, will I be able to search and get information from Copilot in my native language?
- GabeHoFormer Employee
Hey Milorad, currently Copilot supports English, Spanish, Japanese, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, and Chinese as inputs. However, translation to Greek should work.
Hey Gabe, I guess the plan is to cover the most used languages first, because those are, at the same time, the biggest markets, right? Do you have any expectation when can we expect the local language support for the European countries below 10 million people?
- MiloradBrass ContributorHello everyone, thank you for AMA Session. I have a question about Semantic Indexing. So, basically, when we purchase Copilot license for tenant, is Semantic indexing done automatically for all users’ OneDrive storage and SharePoint Online? Can I choose which SharePoint sites could be excluded from search, or can I select a specific folder to be excluded from indexing because of sensitive data?
- Yana Terukhova
Microsoft
yes, you can specify which sites to exclude, like you would do for search. More details are here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftsearch/semantic-index-for-copilot
- Sarah_GilbertSilver ContributorWelcome to the Microsoft 365 Copilot Ask Microsoft Anything (AMA)! This live hour gives you the opportunity to ask questions directly to the Microsoft team. Please post any questions in a separate, new comment thread on this event.
