- Hi Sarah, I am just catching up on emails and I see that this has session was yesterday. Is there a replay I can watch?
- I found the replay on LinkedIn, https://www.linkedin.com/events/7236780403867443202/about/
- Can you please go into more detail on the new Copilot Pages? I'm not sure I understand what they are exactly.

Thanks for asking! If you haven't already I'd suggest watching Monday's event (Microsoft 365 Copilot: Wave 2 | Microsoft September 2024 Event) and reading our blogs at (Microsoft 365 Copilot Wave 2: Pages, Python in Excel, and agents ) and (Announcing Copilot Pages for multiplayer collaboration ).
- I have readed the invitatation mail. But I don't have time in this period.
- Sarah_GilbertThat's ok! For these events we open up the comments a few days beforehand to take in questions early. We will keep you updated for our next one!
- Concerning personal prompt training of M365 Copilot. We understand that each user will start have a more effective Copilot experience the more often they use it over a format they each favor. Will using Copilot Pages affect the other team members prompt and answer retrieval?
- It was announced that Copilot will use GPT 4o - What are the plans to incorporate advanced Voice mode capabilities that have rolled out to paid GPT users in GPT 4o? Are we going to talk to Copilot in natural conversation in the near future?
- Other LLM experiences that compete directly with Copilot have context Windows of 500k to 1 Mill characters, What is Copilot and Copilot for 365 doing to keep up here?
- Thanks!!!!!
Are there plans to expand the current 18,000-20,000 words limit for document analysis?
- Melissa, they recently updated it to 80,000 words. 🙂
- Thank you, Jeff. Any plans for further expansion? I work in legal; our docs are massive!
- Can you speak to the "real" limits of reasoning and summarizing over large documents. I know Copilot will tell you that it can handle up to 100 pages but is that reasoning the same on page 1 as page 99?
- aschilbachAround 80,000 words or less is a “sweet spot” for Copilot to now effectively summarize a document. This is up to 4 times greater than the document length Copilot was previously able to handle.

- I recently had a customer ask when they kept getting the "Not specified in the snippet" response from a Copilot Prompt that asked to find certain information in a 50 page document. It looked like Copilot was trying to pull specifics from a summary it had created. How do you get around that behavior?
- I’ve noticed that the utilization of Copilot seems to be stagnant, as many users treat it similarly to an “internet search.” The simplicity of the single text box for inputting prompts often leads to users relying on their learned habits from search engines, rather than leveraging Copilot as an AI assistant. Given Copilot’s access to the Microsoft Graph, it has the potential to offer significantly more. However, due to years of search engine usage, many users are not accustomed to asking specific questions about their data. Could you provide some resources or strategies to train users on how to effectively prompt Copilot, so it becomes an indispensable tool for them?

Check out the Copilot Scenario Library https://aka.ms/Copilot/ScenarioLibrary for practical everyday scenarios by dept/function and Day in the Life guides. Copilot Lab also has a great library of prompts to explore and inspire users: https://copilot.cloud.microsoft/prompts/all?ocid=CopilotLab_HM_PromptsToTry.
- alliethompsonMarc is right that our adoption site is a great place to start. Copilot Lab (https://support.microsoft.com/copilot) and Copilot Academy (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/viva-learning-blog/microsoft-copilot-academy-now-available-to-all-microsoft-365/ba-p/4229957) are also great resources for this.
- DarrelMillerWe have found it useful to create specialized Declarative Agents that focus on a specific area that has a set of "conversation starters" to give users and idea of what they can do with the Declarative Agent. This helps to lead users down a path of discovering the possibilities.
