Microsoft recently unveiled a suite of tools for business intelligence and app development, including the world's first 'copilot' for CRM and ERP applications. The company also released a generative AI chatbot for business users that will draft email responses, create textual summaries, and more.
The new tools are part of Microsoft's Power Platform, which consists of several components, including Power Virtual Agent and AI Builder. Power Virtual Agent is a chatbot-building tool that enables users to create and deploy AI-powered chatbots, while AI Builder is a no-code AI solution that integrates with Power Apps and Power Automate to help users automate tasks and develop custom AI models.
Meanwhile, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Copilot is a powerful AI-driven assistant that helps users in the customer relationship management (CRM) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) domains. It's designed to simplify the user experience and reduce the amount of time needed to complete tasks.
The new tools come shortly after the European Union launched an in-depth investigation into Microsoft's acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and amid Microsoft's successful Q2 performance, which many analysts believe is indicative of the company's continued success in the years to come.
As for the recently published proof-of-concept for CVE-2023-21716, a critical vulnerability in Microsoft Word that allows remote code execution, Microsoft has released a security update to address the issue. The company is also likely to receive approval from the European Commission for its $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard.
Microsoft has long been the leader in software, and its recent efforts to improve the experience for users of both Windows and Office illustrate the company's commitment to creating innovative products and services that are tailored to the needs of businesses.
