Frequently when using Copilot, it will stop answering with a message insisting on a change of topic. These refusals to respond don't seem to be associated with the topic under discussion or any objectionable material, but are entirely random. Starting a new topic and restating the unanswered question just gives the same "change topic" message. The only fix is to shut Copilot down and try again later. Needless to say, this is suboptimal. Does anyone know what's going on around here and how to fix it?20KViews5likes14CommentsMicrosoft 365 Copilot: Wave 2 AMA

Scenario. We have a template requirements document in word which we want to use as a template. This document has many sections with titles, and we want to be able to use another document with a captureTable in it (ideally this would be excel but word can't use excel as a reference) and use it to essentially complete the new document using the information in the capturedocument Goal: Have word complete a new document, using the ReferenceDocument as the template using the CaptureDocument as the source for information. The Column 1 in the table refers to main sections i the Reference Document. Has anyone got any tips or sample prompts they have had success with for this scenario... Here is an example of the Prompt we tried: Scenario: You are a technical presales consultant and have been speaking to a customer about the requirements for an upcoming project based on a set of deliverables, objectives and goals. Context: You need to create a document using the TemplateDocument as a template that can will be used by the Technical Consultancy team to create a statement of works and commercial pricing. Document: Create a new document using ReferenceDocument as a template and reference the relevant document sections using the information within the table in the CaptureDocument. The data in Column 1 relate to the sections in the reference document. CaptureDocument: CaptureSource ReferenceDocument: RefDocument Additional Information: For each of the key products listed in the CaptureDocument such as Microsoft Defender and Sentinel, provide a table in an appendices section which summarizes the product, key competitor products they compete with and include a link to the relevant Microsoft Learn documentation for reference.8KViews1like4CommentsSeeking Insights: Microsoft Copilot vs. ChatGPT Team - Performance and Usability Concerns
I've been exploring Microsoft Copilot for the last few months, aiming to integrate it into our workflow for its purported advanced AI capabilities, supposedly akin to what we've seen with ChatGPT. However, my experience has been less than satisfactory, raising several concerns about its current effectiveness and readiness for "prime time" use in professional environments. Firstly, the response times and the overall fluidity of interaction with Copilot have been notably slower and more cumbersome than what I've experienced with ChatGPT. This difference is stark, considering both products are said to leverage the same underlying OpenAI Platform One of the fundamental issues I've encountered with Copilot is its inability to accurately perform simple tasks that I would expect to be straightforward, such as adding up columns in Excel correctly. These are not complex queries but basic functionalities that significantly impact daily productivity. Furthermore, when attempting to utilize Copilot to pull information from tagged documents, the results have been consistently disappointing. Either it fails to retrieve the needed information or, worse, provides incorrect answers. This reliability issue is a significant barrier to trust and dependency on the tool for professional purposes. In contrast, ChatGPT Team license has demonstrated a more robust performance. Whether it's querying document information or needing swift, accurate responses, ChatGPT consistently delivers a superior experience. The speed and reliability difference is night and day, making me question the current value proposition of onboarding more users to Copilot. Given these challenges, I'm reaching out to this community to hear your thoughts and experiences: Have you encountered similar issues with Microsoft Copilot, and how have you addressed them? Are there specific settings, updates, or workarounds that have improved your experience with Copilot? For those who have used both Copilot and a ChatGPT Team Account, what are your comparative insights regarding their performance and utility in professional settings? Wondering if it's just me noticing these things or not.Solved7.1KViews0likes2CommentsWork /.Web toggle dissapears from Copilot on Edge/Windows
For a Copilot for Microsoft 365, a licensed user, sees the Work (graph-grounded chat) / Web toggle. At some point, the switch just disappears. It might appear the next day, or at random and then, disappear again. Completely at random times. At the same time, the same problem happens on bing.com/chat, where the toggle also comes and goes.6.1KViews2likes6Comments
