Details:
Copilot now makes it easier to schedule meetings directly from email conversations. With the new Schedule with Copilot option, Copilot analyzes the email thread and automatically creates a meeting invitation-pre-filling the title, agenda, and attaching the email thread. Attendees from the email are added to the invite, and you can quickly review, edit, and send.
