Imagine you have a personal assistant who not only helps you with your daily tasks but also provides you with instant, relevant information whenever you need it. This is similar to what Microsoft 365 Copilot is doing with its new feature of integrating rich Bing web answer cards.
Think of these answer cards as small, interactive flashcards that pop up with the information you need. For instance, if you're in a meeting and someone asks about the current weather in a city where you're planning an event, instead of searching through multiple websites, the Copilot can instantly show you a weather card with the latest forecast. It's like having a weather app right inside your work tools.
Similarly, if you're discussing company stocks or financial data, and you need the latest stock prices, the Copilot can present a stock card with up-to-date information. This is akin to having a financial news ticker running in the background, ready to give you the latest updates without interrupting your workflow.
These interactive cards are designed to enrich your experience by providing quick, relevant answers to your queries directly within the Microsoft 365 environment. This means less time spent switching between different applications or websites and more time focusing on your tasks. It's like having a knowledgeable assistant who anticipates your needs and provides you with the right information at the right time, making your workday smoother and more efficient.
