Description: Copilot Pro enables you to be more creative and productive, but using generative AI requires a whole new way of thinkingâmost users try once or twice, get poor results and give up. This book teaches them what they don't know and helps them get started with the right skills. Copilot Pro adds generative AI experiences into the most used Microsoft applicationsâOutlook, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote, enabling users to be more productive and creative by generating first drafts, editing and improving their work, easily understanding and finding pieces of information in large documents, and gaining new insights. It also allows users to generate text and images in a browser and via a mobile app, using the latest AI models. This is a completely new way of thinking and workingâlike having your own personal 'enthusiastic intern' working side by side with you every day to take on the mundane and time-consuming tasks, freeing you up for more interesting and creative work. Generative AI has been everywhere in the media, with a huge hype cycle, but most everyday workers don't understand how it can be applied to their day-to-day work in a practical and transformative way. This will follow the 'Step by Step' series format, taking the user through a series of steps they can follow to learn practical skills and understand what's possible. The nature of generative AI is that the results vary every time, so the book will provide several different examples of each skill to illustrate the variances and possibilities and help the reader find examples that are most relevant to them, to build their understanding and knowledge. Copilot Pro is designed for the consumer or home user and was only announced and made available in January 2024. The uptake of generative AI is more rapid than anything we have seen
