AI That Acts: A Deep Dive into the autonomous capabilities of M365 Copilot Agents
This deep-dive session will showcase a constellation of Microsoft-built agents, demonstrating how they leverage deep reasoning and enterprise knowledge to transform daily productivity from reactive assistance to proactive automation. You will see live demonstrations of agents operating across the M365 ecosystem.
Key Agents Covered:
Teams Channel Agent: Acts as a dedicated project team member in a Teams channel. It automatically drafts AI-generated status reports, manages project tasks, and uses channel conversations and meeting transcripts to become a domain expert for the team, answering questions autonomously.
Viva Community Agent: Embedded in Viva Engage communities, this agent proactively drafts accurate, data-driven responses to common questions, connecting colleagues to the right internal information and ensuring quick and consistent communication across the organization.
Researcher Agent: A deep reasoning model that performs multi-step analysis across organizational documents and web data. It is capable of autonomously summarizing complex topics, compiling comprehensive reports, and ensuring all findings are grounded and cited.
Analyst Agent: Your virtual data scientist. Integrated with a secure Python execution environment, it autonomously identifies trends, generates advanced insights from complex datasets (like Excel), and visualizes findings without manual formula creation or explicit guidance.
Facilitator Agent: A shared assistant in Teams meetings that runs independently to keep meetings on track by managing the agenda, generating real-time notes, assigning follow-up tasks, and automatically capturing key decisions.
Interpreter Agent: Provides real-time voice translation during Teams meetings, replicating tone and voice to enable seamless, inclusive collaboration across multilingual teams.
Attendees will leave the session with practical knowledge and a strategic understanding of how to implement and leverage these new AI capabilities.
