Timeline for Copilot "auto-complete" feature

Does anyone know when this will be released?   

 

This information comes from the microsoft blog - Copilot, but I have not found any information on when this new feature will be rolled out. 

 

"If you’ve got the start of a prompt, Copilot will offer to auto-complete it to get to a better result, suggesting something more detailed to help ensure you get what you’re looking for. That not only speeds things up, it offers you new ideas for how to leverage Copilot’s power."

    Will the auto-complete feature also extend to Azure AI and Copilot Studio?

      The auto-complete functionality will likely extend to Azure AI and Copilot Studio, but official confirmation from Microsoft is needed.

    RobertBaysinger2024,
    That's exactly right! Copilot's auto-complete functionality for prompts is a powerful tool for getting the most out of the AI assistant. Here's how it works:

    Start with a basic prompt: You provide Copilot with a starting point for what you need. This could be a simple keyword or a short sentence describing your goal.
    Copilot suggests completions: Based on your initial prompt and its understanding of your work context, Copilot offers suggestions to refine your prompt. These suggestions can be:
    More specific: Adding details like file types, dates, or project names to narrow down the search. (e.g., "Search for 'Acme Inc Project'" becomes "Search for '.docx' files containing 'Acme Inc Proposal'")
    Action-oriented: Turning your request into a clear instruction for Copilot. (e.g., "Summarize client report" becomes "Summarize the key findings from the latest 'Acme Inc Marketing Report'")
    Contextually relevant: Providing options based on your recent activity or common tasks within your environment.

    Benefits of Auto-complete:
    Faster results: By making your prompts more specific, you get Copilot to generate the desired output quicker.
    Improved accuracy: Refined prompts lead Copilot to a better understanding of your needs, leading to more accurate code suggestions or document summaries.
    Idea generation: Copilot's suggestions can spark new ideas for how to use its capabilities and potentially unlock functionalities you weren't aware of.
