What? 0:1:21.30 --> 0:1:48.650 Michael Gannotti I was going to say is there's a couple of main sections, so we'll be talking about some of the Microsoft 365 announcements that may not be necessarily copilot today, but definitely when we talk about employee experience, they're part of that extended experience beyond just Viva, although they integrate with Viva, many of these we'll talk about Viva and then copilot and how it's inserting itself into a bunch of stuff. 0:1:48.660 --> 0:1:57.200 Michael Gannotti And you're right, there is just a ton of announcements and we kick off with one of my favorites, which is. 0:1:59.730 --> 0:2:1.100 Tyrelle Barnes SharePoint premium. 0:2:3.180 --> 0:2:4.20 Tyrelle Barnes Yay. 0:2:1.870 --> 0:2:4.140 Michael Gannotti Share point I. 0:2:5.510 --> 0:2:12.190 Michael Gannotti So that's what I my my roots go way back to SharePoint, you know originally and yeah. 0:2:12.200 --> 0:2:18.960 Michael Gannotti So a lot of information around that and I don't know, have you had time to digest any of that yet, tyrelle? 0:2:19.410 --> 0:2:20.940 Tyrelle Barnes A little bit, yeah, Mike. 0:2:20.950 --> 0:2:26.760 Tyrelle Barnes I mean, I think it's really exciting how we're modernizing SharePoint and continuing to add value there. 0:2:27.210 --> 0:2:27.450 Michael Gannotti Yep. 0:2:26.770 --> 0:2:29.590 Tyrelle Barnes And so, yeah, I'd love to hear your take on it. 0:2:30.650 --> 0:2:30.930 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:2:30.470 --> 0:2:31.670 Tyrelle Barnes SharePoint samurai. 0:2:32.600 --> 0:2:35.910 Michael Gannotti So you know the name itself? 0:2:35.920 --> 0:2:38.70 Michael Gannotti I I'm glad they made the name change. 0:2:38.80 --> 0:2:42.690 Michael Gannotti I I can see that there might be some customer confusion at first. 0:2:42.700 --> 0:2:43.850 Michael Gannotti Like what does this mean? 0:2:43.860 --> 0:2:46.790 Michael Gannotti Is this a whole bunch of new stuff on SharePoint? 0:2:46.850 --> 0:2:47.980 Michael Gannotti And the answer is yes and no. 0:2:49.580 --> 0:2:49.800 Tyrelle Barnes OK. 0:2:49.430 --> 0:3:17.500 Michael Gannotti We have had some premium offers that sit on top of SharePoint like SharePoint like syntax like the Microsoft excuse me, the SharePoint Premium management of pieces and So what we've done is we've wrapped those in with some additional new features around AI that we're bringing in and adding to what was syntax and we're calling that SharePoint premium. 0:3:17.510 --> 0:3:18.910 Michael Gannotti So you're not. 0:3:18.970 --> 0:3:23.150 Michael Gannotti We're not like adding saying ohh now if you want to do this new. 0:3:23.230 --> 0:3:32.720 Michael Gannotti If you want more around SharePoint SharePoint, the base product will continue to be added to a new all kinds of new innovation coming to it. 0:3:32.980 --> 0:3:39.520 Michael Gannotti As a Ben doing, but really this is taking some of those premium features that were branded with other names. 0:3:39.680 --> 0:3:39.920 Tyrelle Barnes Mm-hmm. 0:3:42.920 --> 0:3:43.960 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah, yeah. 0:3:39.600 --> 0:3:44.770 Michael Gannotti But then people would look and say, but isn't that in SharePoint and that share and we're bringing them. 0:3:44.940 --> 0:3:52.240 Michael Gannotti So bringing couple of paid additions and then calling it one piece. 0:3:52.290 --> 0:4:13.260 Michael Gannotti So some of it's a naming and marketing and skew versus product, but also they talked about you know really that idea of using the power of AI to drive some of that labeling, you know, sensitivity labels, other labeling which can then boost other things like topics in Viva. 0:4:14.230 --> 0:4:14.920 Tyrelle Barnes Right. 0:4:15.130 --> 0:4:15.640 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:4:25.40 --> 0:4:25.260 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:4:15.650 --> 0:4:28.380 Tyrelle Barnes And so we we went from so some similarly we're we're kind of modernizing that that functionality that we had as Viva topics and just it's really across suite feature now. 0:4:28.200 --> 0:4:28.440 Michael Gannotti Yep. 0:4:28.490 --> 0:4:30.0 Tyrelle Barnes And so it's going. 0:4:30.70 --> 0:4:32.160 Tyrelle Barnes It's not going to be available as a standalone. 0:4:32.170 --> 0:4:33.780 Tyrelle Barnes It's going to be called. 0:4:36.630 --> 0:4:36.850 Michael Gannotti Yep. 0:4:46.660 --> 0:4:46.910 Michael Gannotti Mm-hmm. 0:4:54.380 --> 0:4:54.580 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:4:33.790 --> 0:4:57.890 Tyrelle Barnes You know, we've changed the name to topics and Viva and similarly to skills in Viva it it kind of spreads across the different modules and creates that AI layer that's gonna be automatically bringing the knowledge and expertise into some of the other solutions that we'll get into a little later like Viva answers and Viva engage and Viva amplify. 0:4:58.490 --> 0:4:58.680 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:4:57.900 --> 0:4:59.900 Tyrelle Barnes So it's all kind of working together. 0:5:0.670 --> 0:5:20.480 Michael Gannotti Coming together and then, you know, one of the things people don't think about is again, when we talk about the graph, that semantic index and, you know, bringing all that information through copilot to make the answers more and more relevant when you're doing something like what was formally syntax. 0:5:20.490 --> 0:5:33.160 Michael Gannotti But now you know that SharePoint premium and you're getting that advanced labeling capabilities and automated that just increases the relevancy and that kind of data connectivity. 0:5:33.170 --> 0:5:42.480 Michael Gannotti So it can even better understand than just taking pure simple pure, you know text indexing a features where you're getting all these labels. 0:5:42.490 --> 0:5:47.670 Michael Gannotti Now that provide more insight into the data itself. 0:5:48.20 --> 0:5:48.710 Michael Gannotti The enterprise. 0:5:48.720 --> 0:5:52.770 Michael Gannotti So yeah, I'm excited about that SharePoint premium. 0:5:52.880 --> 0:5:54.240 Michael Gannotti There's a lot of content. 0:5:54.250 --> 0:5:55.20 Michael Gannotti We'll have links. 0:5:55.30 --> 0:6:2.680 Michael Gannotti We'll have links to all this stuff that we're condensing down for you, but some exciting pieces including some videos. 0:6:4.330 --> 0:6:4.940 Tyrelle Barnes Great. 0:6:5.90 --> 0:6:5.570 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:6:5.280 --> 0:6:6.50 Michael Gannotti So what do we have next? 0:6:5.580 --> 0:6:8.280 Tyrelle Barnes And which clip champ? 0:6:13.720 --> 0:6:13.980 Michael Gannotti Yep. 0:6:8.490 --> 0:6:14.660 Tyrelle Barnes This is something that you talked about early on when we started doing our podcast and you were showing it to me. 0:6:14.670 --> 0:6:26.180 Tyrelle Barnes And I really at the time, couldn't understand how cool it was or you know what that meant about it becoming available and in teams and in our stack. 0:6:26.270 --> 0:6:31.340 Tyrelle Barnes And so, yeah, I'd love to hear more about Clipchamp now because I had a customer actually ask about it. 0:6:31.350 --> 0:6:34.440 Tyrelle Barnes They were asking about, you know, how do we how do employees? 0:6:34.450 --> 0:6:36.70 Tyrelle Barnes How can employees do podcasts? 0:6:36.520 --> 0:6:37.60 Michael Gannotti Right. 0:6:36.80 --> 0:6:42.50 Tyrelle Barnes They want to do podcasts internally, so yeah, I'd love to hear what you think about the clip, Champ and app integrations. 0:6:42.630 --> 0:6:43.140 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:6:43.150 --> 0:6:46.620 Michael Gannotti So Clipchamp kind of one step back. 0:6:46.630 --> 0:6:50.910 Michael Gannotti Clipchamp was a third party service like many of those out there. 0:6:50.920 --> 0:6:55.160 Michael Gannotti It was designed for quick content creation and editing. 0:6:55.290 --> 0:7:12.970 Michael Gannotti The full featured with an eye towards social media and propagating information out and doing things of that nature and what we've done is we've purchased it and now it is fully integrated into the Microsoft 365 stack. 0:7:13.60 --> 0:7:22.120 Michael Gannotti So if you're an E3 customer or an E5, you can turn that on, enable it for your users, and they'll find it. 0:7:22.320 --> 0:7:26.290 Michael Gannotti It'll surface in a number of places in the flow of work, and that's a beauty. 0:7:26.440 --> 0:7:27.930 Michael Gannotti We meet people where they're at. 0:7:28.20 --> 0:7:30.210 Michael Gannotti So number one, we have a meeting right now. 0:7:30.220 --> 0:7:35.910 Michael Gannotti We're doing a teams meeting when we record it, so I wanted to play back that teams meeting. 0:7:36.100 --> 0:7:40.470 Michael Gannotti It would open in the browser, but now at the top. 0:7:40.850 --> 0:7:44.460 Michael Gannotti One of the options to click is edit and clip champ. 0:7:44.530 --> 0:7:48.910 Michael Gannotti So people who said before, you know, jeez, I'd like to take out the junk in the beginning. 0:7:48.920 --> 0:7:49.480 Michael Gannotti The end? 0:7:49.490 --> 0:7:54.720 Michael Gannotti Maybe there's a couple of things that are sensitive and I don't want everybody else seeing blunt. 0:7:54.730 --> 0:7:55.560 Michael Gannotti Let's pull that. 0:7:55.570 --> 0:7:57.240 Michael Gannotti Maybe I wanna drop some other. 0:7:57.650 --> 0:7:59.160 Michael Gannotti Put a splashy intro. 0:7:59.570 --> 0:8:0.280 Michael Gannotti You can do that. 0:8:0.290 --> 0:8:5.70 Michael Gannotti It's one click and it literally opens the video in Clipchamp to do it full featured. 0:8:5.830 --> 0:8:10.810 Michael Gannotti It also shows up in your OneDrive where you click add new where you can do documents. 0:8:31.300 --> 0:8:31.650 Tyrelle Barnes App. 0:8:33.800 --> 0:8:34.370 Tyrelle Barnes It's a mouthful. 0:8:10.820 --> 0:8:36.890 Michael Gannotti It's now at the bottom of there, and then finally, if you go into the waffle or the app launcher in the upper left and you click see all apps, if it's turned on for you, then you can search for it or browse to it and find the clip Champ amp clip champ A and it will be available, but it's full featured web based editor that allows you. 0:8:36.900 --> 0:8:43.590 Michael Gannotti It has, you know, we have premium content around sound effects music, you know, we're all free. 0:8:43.600 --> 0:8:51.150 Michael Gannotti Music is included with it royalty free premier imaging royalty free premiere video content. 0:8:51.260 --> 0:8:52.150 Michael Gannotti There's effects. 0:8:52.160 --> 0:8:53.790 Michael Gannotti All that kind of stuff there. 0:8:53.840 --> 0:9:2.610 Michael Gannotti When you're done, you can click output and you have options from very low res all the way to 4K and great. 0:9:2.900 --> 0:9:6.420 Michael Gannotti I use it for our podcast to trim off our beginning and end. 0:9:6.920 --> 0:9:8.450 Tyrelle Barnes Yes, awesome. 0:9:8.460 --> 0:9:9.890 Tyrelle Barnes Well, thanks, Mike. 0:9:10.250 --> 0:9:11.40 Michael Gannotti So yeah. 0:9:10.0 --> 0:9:15.870 Tyrelle Barnes And that brings me that brings us to Microsoft Loop and then this is something else that we use. 0:9:21.700 --> 0:9:21.820 Michael Gannotti Yes. 0:9:15.880 --> 0:9:26.390 Tyrelle Barnes We're using right now to do our to do our collaboration for our podcast, but lots of us are starting to use loop more internally. 0:9:26.510 --> 0:9:29.260 Tyrelle Barnes So tell us about what's the cool thing about loop? 0:9:29.900 --> 0:9:30.330 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:9:30.340 --> 0:9:37.910 Michael Gannotti So first of all, the big announcement was it when general availability, so it's now available to orgs not in preview. 0:9:38.360 --> 0:9:43.630 Michael Gannotti So it falls under your terms of service and that whole bit as a part of it. 0:9:43.640 --> 0:9:50.950 Michael Gannotti That's a big deal, but when we talk about loop loop really to me is you know, I was a big OneNote user. 0:9:51.220 --> 0:9:54.210 Michael Gannotti I managed teams and different things. 0:9:54.400 --> 0:10:2.130 Michael Gannotti I'm not a formal project manager, but I had a need to create in the past notebooks of pages around content. 0:10:2.210 --> 0:10:5.320 Michael Gannotti I use it for my updates and one on ones with my manager. 0:10:6.240 --> 0:10:11.470 Michael Gannotti I've migrated over to Luke because Luke is a little more dynamic. 0:10:11.620 --> 0:10:16.330 Michael Gannotti Same similar basic structure instead of a notebook you create a workspace. 0:10:16.660 --> 0:10:27.620 Michael Gannotti Then you create pages and then in those pages, just like in OneNote, you could add things like not a graph, a a table. 0:10:27.630 --> 0:10:38.560 Michael Gannotti You could add tables, bulleted lists, all kinds of components that you can add free type, but each of those becomes what they call a loop component when you add it to the page. 0:10:39.410 --> 0:10:47.120 Michael Gannotti And the beauty of it is you can copy and paste that loop component elsewhere like we're in a teams meeting. 0:10:47.190 --> 0:10:49.40 Michael Gannotti You could drop it into the chat. 0:10:49.190 --> 0:10:51.20 Michael Gannotti You have a whiteboard. 0:10:51.70 --> 0:10:52.650 Michael Gannotti Drop it into the whiteboard. 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:59.490 Michael Gannotti Drop it into word, drop it in an email and it's dynamic and updated in real time across. 0:10:59.500 --> 0:11:10.90 Michael Gannotti So if we dropped a loop component in this chat tyrelle and you started editing the original one would show that edits in real time as well as anywhere else it's showing. 0:11:10.900 --> 0:11:12.340 Michael Gannotti So yeah. 0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:16.380 Tyrelle Barnes I love that and I'm gonna start using loop now because I was yesterday. 0:11:18.890 --> 0:11:19.220 Michael Gannotti Umm. 0:11:16.390 --> 0:11:21.850 Tyrelle Barnes I have some new customers I'm working with and so I was creating some OneNote and I think that I'm not gonna. 0:11:21.860 --> 0:11:28.920 Tyrelle Barnes I'm just gonna leave that and and try loop because it sounds a little bit more umm dynamic so yeah. 0:11:28.790 --> 0:11:29.700 Michael Gannotti Yeah, it. 0:11:29.790 --> 0:11:36.470 Michael Gannotti And they announced just a couple of quick things highlights, new things that they added, a work workspace status. 0:11:37.90 --> 0:11:43.390 Michael Gannotti Uh, that's being updated to give you new all kinds of new info with upcoming deadlines as a part of it. 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:51.190 Michael Gannotti So you'll get alerts around that workspace descriptions where you can surface files and other things. 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:54.230 Michael Gannotti That's there power automate integration. 0:11:56.180 --> 0:11:56.450 Tyrelle Barnes What? 0:11:54.240 --> 0:12:2.650 Michael Gannotti I thought this was an interesting they'll integrate power automate to simplify task tracking and project management within your loop. 0:12:2.900 --> 0:12:3.790 Michael Gannotti That's cool. 0:12:4.20 --> 0:12:10.190 Michael Gannotti You'll be able to start a loop workspace right from teams as a new addition, like when you create a team. 0:12:11.730 --> 0:12:12.500 Tyrelle Barnes There's a loop. 0:12:13.460 --> 0:12:14.580 Tyrelle Barnes Ah. 0:12:10.380 --> 0:12:16.370 Michael Gannotti Boom, and it'll drop in a workspace, and we're doing it in meetings as well. 0:12:16.380 --> 0:12:19.350 Michael Gannotti So it's just really cool a lot there with loop. 0:12:19.360 --> 0:12:21.840 Michael Gannotti Again, we'll have links to the resources. 0:12:21.850 --> 0:12:24.720 Michael Gannotti Check it out to one of my favorite tools these days. 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:26.900 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah, that is really cool. 0:12:29.80 --> 0:12:35.390 Tyrelle Barnes And then we have new updates for Microsoft 365 for frontline workers. Wow. 0:12:34.900 --> 0:12:42.600 Michael Gannotti E Yeah, so there's a couple of things that I thought were interesting that they put out. 0:12:42.610 --> 0:12:47.530 Michael Gannotti One, I'm gonna save the whole Bing chat enterprise now, copilot. 0:12:47.540 --> 0:12:53.360 Michael Gannotti We'll talk about that in a bit, but a couple of things that they've added here. 0:12:57.880 --> 0:12:58.80 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:12:53.510 --> 0:13:1.280 Michael Gannotti One you know, the Microsoft app shifts shifts that frontline workers use, and they can drop it into teams. 0:13:2.90 --> 0:13:16.570 Michael Gannotti They're putting a shifts plug in for Microsoft copilot for 365 so that people will be able to start taking advantage of AI and scheduling finding free shifts and all that kind of stuff, right? 0:13:24.20 --> 0:13:24.470 Michael Gannotti Umm. 0:13:15.60 --> 0:13:29.250 Tyrelle Barnes Ohh wow, that's gonna be really for like really impact the efficiency and optimization of people trying to do that and and change shifts and that's that's been a big need for a while. 0:13:29.850 --> 0:13:30.480 Michael Gannotti I had. 0:13:33.940 --> 0:13:34.250 Tyrelle Barnes Well. 0:13:30.490 --> 0:13:36.980 Michael Gannotti I actually had this question asked just the other day and I hadn't seen that update yet as it well, I don't know. 0:13:37.70 --> 0:13:38.340 Michael Gannotti I had to get back to him. 0:13:39.260 --> 0:13:39.680 Tyrelle Barnes Well, that's. 0:13:38.390 --> 0:13:51.320 Michael Gannotti Yeah, they they're also having a deploy and manage those teams using dynamic with they're calling dynamic membership capability before you had to manually add each of the people. 0:13:51.390 --> 0:14:0.700 Michael Gannotti Now you'll be able to take advantage of Entra, formerly known as Azure Active Directory, which I it's gonna take me a while. 0:13:59.940 --> 0:14:2.340 Tyrelle Barnes We changed the name of add to. 0:14:2.450 --> 0:14:4.500 Michael Gannotti You didn't know that? Yeah. 0:14:4.70 --> 0:14:6.400 Tyrelle Barnes No, I'm finding out now. 0:14:6.780 --> 0:14:8.660 Michael Gannotti Entra it's entra ID. 0:14:6.490 --> 0:14:10.650 Tyrelle Barnes Wow, entra ID interesting. 0:14:9.940 --> 0:14:23.160 Michael Gannotti Yeah, I I keep saying Azure Active Directory it's entra ID but being able to use dynamic groups from for the the artist formerly known is as your Active Directory. 0:14:23.770 --> 0:14:25.660 Michael Gannotti That's coming as well. 0:14:25.670 --> 0:14:30.40 Michael Gannotti And then finally deploying it at scale is another thing. 0:14:44.670 --> 0:14:45.0 Tyrelle Barnes Oh. 0:14:30.50 --> 0:14:45.300 Michael Gannotti Being able to go across multiple locations and teams, et cetera with a single shift app that those are some big asks that they've had, but that's the and again, we'll have the links and information around that, that's frontline. 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:47.190 Tyrelle Barnes Oh, awesome. 0:14:46.890 --> 0:14:48.760 Michael Gannotti And then the next one's pretty cool. 0:14:50.770 --> 0:14:51.700 Michael Gannotti Planner. 0:14:52.660 --> 0:15:0.140 Michael Gannotti So we've had all these things like to do tasks planner we're bringing. 0:14:59.450 --> 0:15:1.480 Tyrelle Barnes Project, yeah. 0:15:1.220 --> 0:15:5.930 Michael Gannotti Yeah, I mean, it's crazy, but we're bringing it all together. 0:15:7.590 --> 0:15:7.940 Tyrelle Barnes Yay. 0:15:6.220 --> 0:15:17.410 Michael Gannotti Finally, finally, not just showing up as tasks into a single, it's bringing together also project for the web. 0:15:17.420 --> 0:15:20.650 Michael Gannotti It's so really what it's pulling is Microsoft to do. 0:15:20.780 --> 0:15:28.560 Michael Gannotti Microsoft Planner and Microsoft Project for the web into a single experience that we're calling Microsoft Planner. 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:32.110 Michael Gannotti So think of it you're planner. 0:15:32.120 --> 0:15:33.870 Michael Gannotti Which people have loved anyways? 0:15:38.470 --> 0:15:38.890 Tyrelle Barnes Barry. 0:15:34.140 --> 0:15:45.270 Michael Gannotti Getting amped on steroids for capability, and of course you know, we couldn't do any of that was out starting to look at having AI integrated in. 0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:48.670 Michael Gannotti So we have a number of different things around AI that'll help. 0:15:49.520 --> 0:16:2.330 Michael Gannotti We have project plan, scheduling resources, tools and things they did not have previous in there and so you'll see all this getting consolidated and coming in the months to come. 0:16:3.320 --> 0:16:4.290 Tyrelle Barnes Awesome. 0:16:4.440 --> 0:16:6.170 Tyrelle Barnes Well, that'll be exciting. 0:16:6.760 --> 0:16:7.380 Tyrelle Barnes Well, cool. 0:16:6.950 --> 0:16:9.160 Michael Gannotti So I have stuff for you. 0:16:9.170 --> 0:16:10.10 Michael Gannotti I want you to cover. 0:16:10.730 --> 0:16:12.400 Tyrelle Barnes What about Viva? 0:16:12.980 --> 0:16:13.270 Michael Gannotti Viva. 0:16:12.470 --> 0:16:23.570 Tyrelle Barnes We have some really exciting Viva announcements around Viva engage and Viva amplify and so one thing for people been really excited about Viva Amplify. 0:16:32.510 --> 0:16:32.750 Michael Gannotti Mm-hmm. 0:16:24.310 --> 0:16:36.550 Tyrelle Barnes It allows companies to really umm do multi channel corporate communications and and leverage our technology to make it really simple. 0:16:36.880 --> 0:16:40.470 Tyrelle Barnes But now that's gonna be available for multi tenant organizations. 0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:43.720 Tyrelle Barnes So it's gonna be able to be used like Viva. 0:16:47.640 --> 0:16:47.770 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:16:43.730 --> 0:16:52.690 Tyrelle Barnes Engage will be able to use for cross tenant communications so that leaders can communicate at scale and build community across the organization. 0:16:52.700 --> 0:16:59.90 Tyrelle Barnes So that's been something that's been a big ask for a while, and then there'll be generally analytics around that. 0:17:4.30 --> 0:17:4.210 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:16:59.100 --> 0:17:6.990 Tyrelle Barnes So you can really see like like how are people engaging with the communication so that you can kind of streamline based on that. 0:17:7.60 --> 0:17:8.630 Tyrelle Barnes It's generally available now. 0:17:9.80 --> 0:17:13.190 Tyrelle Barnes There's also gonna be the ability to publish from Viva Amplify to Viva engage. 0:17:16.890 --> 0:17:17.70 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:18.730 Tyrelle Barnes That's been a big ask cuz we have customers who are really are big users of Viva engage. 0:17:19.10 --> 0:17:19.280 Michael Gannotti Umm. 0:17:18.740 --> 0:17:27.550 Tyrelle Barnes And so now for corporate to be able to communicate and those channels and those Viva engage communities and have storylines that's really gonna help. 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:33.550 Tyrelle Barnes And then they'll be reports available as well and Viva amplify so they can see how that is being consumed. 0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:39.430 Tyrelle Barnes So it's that's actually it's in private preview starting early next year. 0:17:39.440 --> 0:17:44.590 Tyrelle Barnes So that'll be coming to GA probably mid mid next year. 0:17:54.860 --> 0:17:55.40 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:18:5.430 --> 0:18:5.640 Michael Gannotti Mm-hmm. 0:17:45.580 --> 0:18:5.810 Tyrelle Barnes Umm, something super exciting is Viva goals and Viva engaged now have integration so that's being able to bring that mission and alignment and results into the communities, into the conversations and then helping them be able to like build goals around that and then view the progress of those goals directly in Viva engage. 0:18:5.820 --> 0:18:16.970 Tyrelle Barnes So that's gonna also create that community across the different parts of the organization and then help with leaderships top down, communication and interactions. 0:18:24.10 --> 0:18:24.310 Michael Gannotti Right. 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:24.350 Tyrelle Barnes So they'll be able to see how that's impacting different, you know, progress against goals that they have. 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:29.460 Tyrelle Barnes So that's also gonna be generally available starting on the first half of next year. 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:30.920 Michael Gannotti Nice. 0:18:31.50 --> 0:18:47.850 Tyrelle Barnes And yeah, and then for answers, which is that AI powered knowledge solution that we have available, we are going to be able to leverage AI to generate questions and answers from existing files and import them. 0:18:53.170 --> 0:18:53.970 Michael Gannotti That's huge. 0:18:48.40 --> 0:18:54.190 Tyrelle Barnes Also, the AI can automatically route open questions to people who might have the answer, so it's going to kind of be able to tell. 0:18:54.700 --> 0:18:55.410 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:57.690 Tyrelle Barnes So that it's actually doing its job. 0:18:59.520 --> 0:18:59.720 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:18:57.700 --> 0:19:4.60 Tyrelle Barnes It's it's that intelligence layer that's saying, hey, I know Mike Gannotti knows everything about SharePoint. 0:19:12.380 --> 0:19:12.650 Michael Gannotti Umm. 0:19:4.70 --> 0:19:21.990 Tyrelle Barnes I bet he has the answer to this question and so then users can identify like the right topics for question, they can see top similar responses before publishing and so that's really going to aid in that routing to the experts that's gonna start rolling out actually later this year. 0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:33.90 Tyrelle Barnes And then we've already made updates to Viva Amplify, so it's going to include publication templates for campaigns and AD localization and more than 50 languages now. 0:19:38.980 --> 0:19:39.120 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:19:33.100 --> 0:19:44.370 Tyrelle Barnes So we'll have better reporting too for the systems to incorporate the the custom data from HR tools and and then that's all going to be available actually in December. 0:19:44.380 --> 0:19:46.590 Tyrelle Barnes So that's coming out really soon. 0:19:47.760 --> 0:19:48.140 Michael Gannotti Awesome. 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:49.50 Tyrelle Barnes So those are the latest. 0:19:49.60 --> 0:19:56.100 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah, those are the latest kind of Viva engage and Viva amplify announcements that I wanted to share. 0:19:56.850 --> 0:19:57.210 Michael Gannotti That's. 0:19:57.220 --> 0:20:23.280 Michael Gannotti I mean, that's big stuff and I the answers piece excites me because it really is living up to the promise of answers and making it something I think orgs are gonna be very much gravitating towards the idea that it can pull all that data through AI and give you an automated response with documents and stuff, but also automatically route to the appropriate people. 0:20:23.340 --> 0:20:24.370 Michael Gannotti That's that's huge. 0:20:24.780 --> 0:20:25.140 Michael Gannotti That's huge. 0:20:24.910 --> 0:20:25.680 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:20:25.780 --> 0:20:28.60 Tyrelle Barnes It's like bringing like what used to be. 0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:31.980 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:20:36.810 --> 0:20:37.30 Michael Gannotti Yep. 0:20:28.70 --> 0:20:38.380 Tyrelle Barnes You're sitting in an office and you know the person who knows, and you go to their office and ask them and get the answer right, and then maybe share it with others. 0:20:38.420 --> 0:20:50.620 Tyrelle Barnes So like Fast forward and maybe that was, you know, 5-6 years ago and now here we are and we're able to do that digitally across thousands of people in thousands of locations. 0:20:51.130 --> 0:20:52.180 Tyrelle Barnes I mean, it's incredible. 0:20:53.430 --> 0:20:54.40 Michael Gannotti It is. 0:20:54.90 --> 0:20:55.80 Michael Gannotti It's a it's. 0:20:55.90 --> 0:21:1.480 Michael Gannotti This is exciting times, so that was the Viva piece. 0:21:1.490 --> 0:21:10.600 Michael Gannotti But if we there's this other piece around and I said we've kind of put it off around bring bringing copilot to everyone. 0:21:9.950 --> 0:21:13.90 Tyrelle Barnes To every yes, yes. 0:21:13.50 --> 0:21:15.580 Michael Gannotti So you got something to say on that? 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:26.80 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:21:16.690 --> 0:21:40.200 Tyrelle Barnes Well, I wanna say that it's it's, that's like kind of a we're gonna change the the the naming nomenclature basically of Bing chat enterprise and we're it's going to be copilot and it's it's just simply going to for customers that are using copilot and Bing and Edge that's gonna be available and it's automatically enabled. 0:21:40.210 --> 0:21:41.910 Tyrelle Barnes Right Mike so. 0:21:41.620 --> 0:21:42.70 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:21:42.80 --> 0:21:44.500 Michael Gannotti So that's and I'm glad you just said that. 0:21:44.510 --> 0:21:48.410 Michael Gannotti That's something I think customers should absolutely be aware of. 0:21:50.700 --> 0:22:4.300 Michael Gannotti It's enabled by default, so you need to if you know if you want to step back as an organization and I as a technologist and former corporate architect, I Holly support that. 0:22:6.700 --> 0:22:8.850 Michael Gannotti That you might wanna take a look. 0:22:8.860 --> 0:22:11.410 Michael Gannotti You might wanna turn it off while you evaluate. 0:22:11.420 --> 0:22:14.830 Michael Gannotti At least you know and do that in a demo tenant or something. 0:22:14.960 --> 0:22:16.90 Michael Gannotti Take a look at it. 0:22:16.180 --> 0:22:17.550 Michael Gannotti It's awesome features. 0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:18.350 Michael Gannotti We're using it. 0:22:18.360 --> 0:22:25.250 Michael Gannotti I just showed you a use of it within Microsoft 365 chat, so they have the plug in there. 0:22:25.260 --> 0:22:29.120 Michael Gannotti That's also turned on by default to get web content. 0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:30.200 Michael Gannotti Umm. 0:22:35.280 --> 0:22:35.460 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:22:30.720 --> 0:22:40.150 Michael Gannotti And so I showed you how I could toggle it to for a question and then get and then it said from your organization and then from the web. 0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:41.810 Michael Gannotti So it had two sections. 0:22:42.20 --> 0:22:47.470 Michael Gannotti The two section answer with references to where they came from in both. 0:22:47.580 --> 0:22:54.340 Michael Gannotti One was showing organizational teams chat and the other was showing web based publications from Ignite. 0:22:55.210 --> 0:22:55.710 Tyrelle Barnes Right. 0:22:56.10 --> 0:22:57.900 Michael Gannotti So powerful. 0:23:1.70 --> 0:23:1.190 Michael Gannotti Yes. 0:22:56.210 --> 0:23:3.480 Tyrelle Barnes So yeah, it's it's really cool, but go to the admin center where you can turn it off if you want to. 0:23:6.980 --> 0:23:7.240 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:23:3.490 --> 0:23:10.40 Tyrelle Barnes Like further, you know, investigate before you have that because it's it's automatically turned on now, yeah. 0:23:9.570 --> 0:23:12.930 Michael Gannotti And I'll I'll have the links to the documentation on managing it. 0:23:12.940 --> 0:23:18.540 Michael Gannotti They both can be turned on and off, so take a look at that. 0:23:18.610 --> 0:23:23.800 Michael Gannotti I do know though of a number of organizations when it was available in preview before you could. 0:23:27.250 --> 0:23:27.450 Tyrelle Barnes Mm-hmm. 0:23:25.580 --> 0:23:27.500 Michael Gannotti Before it just was on that. 0:23:27.510 --> 0:23:28.930 Michael Gannotti They turned it on for their orgs. 0:23:33.500 --> 0:23:34.230 Tyrelle Barnes Great. 0:23:28.940 --> 0:23:34.710 Michael Gannotti I had a a CIO who said I'm using all the time. Yeah. 0:23:34.330 --> 0:23:36.610 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah, it's very powerful and it is. 0:23:36.620 --> 0:23:46.120 Tyrelle Barnes It is security trimmed and and they're you know it is completely safe and in compliance with your services terms and agreements under Microsoft. 0:23:45.30 --> 0:23:49.920 Michael Gannotti I actually look, it's actually so it doesn't fall under those. 0:23:49.930 --> 0:23:56.140 Michael Gannotti And here's the reason why it is all we do things that nobody else is doing on the Internet. 0:24:1.140 --> 0:24:1.420 Tyrelle Barnes OK. 0:23:56.150 --> 0:24:10.810 Michael Gannotti So let me take one second to explain that so that we folks get this when you're pulling it, we're leveraging the API to generate that generative AI answer based off of Internet content. 0:24:10.820 --> 0:24:20.210 Michael Gannotti When you're leveraging that, so that's just like going again to Google, to Bing, to Yahoo, to DuckDuckGo or whatever. 0:24:20.260 --> 0:24:21.810 Michael Gannotti Searching, finding stuff. 0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:23.200 Michael Gannotti None of those search engines. 0:24:28.430 --> 0:24:28.790 Tyrelle Barnes OK. 0:24:23.890 --> 0:24:30.520 Michael Gannotti Umm would fall under anybody's terms of service agreements cause they're public facing entities. 0:24:30.760 --> 0:24:31.420 Tyrelle Barnes Right. OK. 0:24:30.590 --> 0:24:49.450 Michael Gannotti Having said that, what we do for what's now called copilot with enterprise features, formerly known as Bing Chat Enterprise, we take it one step further for our customers because we do wanna give you the highest level of comfort and safety, right? 0:24:49.540 --> 0:24:59.580 Michael Gannotti So #1, just like we do with Microsoft 365, we bring in copies of the generative AI models as large language models. 0:24:59.910 --> 0:25:5.920 Michael Gannotti We bring them into that environment and we lock them for enterprise customers. 0:25:6.50 --> 0:25:9.330 Michael Gannotti Your data does not or any data that you're doing. 0:25:9.340 --> 0:25:12.690 Michael Gannotti We don't train the model with data. 0:25:13.160 --> 0:25:28.610 Michael Gannotti We also when you go to initiate that prompt, when that prompt goes out versus searching on the Internet, it knows information about you based off of your browser, your IP address, all that kind of stuff is there. 0:25:28.740 --> 0:25:32.830 Michael Gannotti We strip all that we de identify you, you or your IP address. 0:25:32.910 --> 0:25:42.180 Michael Gannotti All that gets stripped out of the prompt and then the prompt like we do with Microsoft 365 copilot. 0:25:42.430 --> 0:25:46.540 Michael Gannotti We purged the prompt after so we're not keeping any data. 0:25:46.550 --> 0:25:58.260 Michael Gannotti We're not training it as opposed to public services on the Internet or if you go to open AI or any of these other public AI services where they're they're capturing all that kind of stuff. 0:25:58.270 --> 0:26:1.700 Michael Gannotti So we do do that, but because it is a public service. 0:26:3.510 --> 0:26:7.880 Michael Gannotti We we can't put that under our terms of sale agreement. 0:26:8.570 --> 0:26:9.440 Tyrelle Barnes I see. 0:26:9.450 --> 0:26:10.680 Tyrelle Barnes Thanks for explaining that. 0:26:13.430 --> 0:26:15.200 Tyrelle Barnes And I think there's a lot of questions. 0:26:13.100 --> 0:26:15.440 Michael Gannotti Yeah, I got sidetracked. 0:26:15.920 --> 0:26:17.810 Tyrelle Barnes Yes, you know, though that was really good. 0:26:17.820 --> 0:26:26.440 Tyrelle Barnes I think that that that needs to be emphasized cause it's it is a definite question that a lot of people have, yeah. 0:26:26.300 --> 0:26:26.730 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:26:26.740 --> 0:26:30.810 Michael Gannotti And again, you know, we'll provide the documentation, look at it yourselves. 0:26:30.860 --> 0:26:33.370 Michael Gannotti I think it's a tremendous boon to orgs. 0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:45.450 Michael Gannotti I mean it just it gives you that not only internal research capability and and generative AI but external as well which there's always a lot of that. 0:26:45.460 --> 0:26:57.0 Michael Gannotti And I think of clinicians want to get the latest data around disease and stuff from, you know, from publications, right, that are trusted sources and being able to bring all that in. 0:26:58.590 --> 0:26:59.440 Tyrelle Barnes That's really cool. 0:26:57.10 --> 0:26:59.480 Michael Gannotti They could do that with that. 0:27:0.480 --> 0:27:1.780 Tyrelle Barnes I love that use case. 0:27:2.560 --> 0:27:3.70 Michael Gannotti All right. 0:27:3.80 --> 0:27:4.290 Michael Gannotti What was our next? 0:27:2.720 --> 0:27:7.620 Tyrelle Barnes Well, our next one I think is super exciting, Mike. 0:27:8.360 --> 0:27:8.640 Michael Gannotti Ohh. 0:27:15.130 --> 0:27:15.440 Michael Gannotti Please. 0:27:7.630 --> 0:27:17.720 Tyrelle Barnes And that's how do you measure if all these copilots are having an impact in your organization and actually helping change the way people work and making them more productive. 0:27:18.900 --> 0:27:20.750 Tyrelle Barnes Well, now we have a way. 0:27:19.380 --> 0:27:21.480 Michael Gannotti How do you? Yeah. 0:27:20.960 --> 0:27:21.830 Tyrelle Barnes We have. 0:27:21.900 --> 0:27:27.210 Tyrelle Barnes We're going to we have Microsoft copilot dashboard which is powered by Viva. 0:27:27.580 --> 0:27:35.20 Tyrelle Barnes So it's powered by Microsoft Viva and that's gonna help give leadership dashboard where they can see. 0:27:36.330 --> 0:27:36.620 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:27:35.860 --> 0:27:40.350 Tyrelle Barnes You know, do first of all see what their copilot readiness is and their organization. 0:27:43.920 --> 0:27:44.380 Michael Gannotti Hmm. 0:27:40.580 --> 0:27:48.750 Tyrelle Barnes They can drive adoption and then they can measure the impact that that copilots having and that's gonna be part of the Microsoft 365 subscriptions. 0:27:49.800 --> 0:27:49.920 Michael Gannotti Yes. 0:27:49.40 --> 0:27:57.30 Tyrelle Barnes It starting today and it's coming to the Viva Insights app in teams and it'll be available on the web in December. 0:27:57.80 --> 0:28:9.860 Tyrelle Barnes So I mean this is coming out right now and if you heard Jared Spataro's keynote, you saw that we're seeing tremendous impact to organizations early on for the employees that are using copilot. 0:28:9.750 --> 0:28:9.950 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:28:9.950 --> 0:28:17.380 Tyrelle Barnes So they're they're becoming way more productive and they feel like if they had that, they absolutely do not wanna give it up. 0:28:17.550 --> 0:28:22.380 Tyrelle Barnes And so they're using generative AI and copilot as a part of their work day now. 0:28:22.390 --> 0:28:29.790 Tyrelle Barnes And it's helping so that is going to be available for leaders to understand how it's impacting the organizations. 0:28:30.320 --> 0:28:30.950 Michael Gannotti What? 0:28:31.40 --> 0:28:37.70 Michael Gannotti One of the things that you said were you talked about then dashboard powered by Viva, right. 0:28:37.290 --> 0:28:37.650 Tyrelle Barnes Umm. 0:28:37.200 --> 0:28:40.190 Michael Gannotti I think that that brings up an important point, right. 0:28:40.200 --> 0:28:46.880 Michael Gannotti So there's elements of Viva we've been talking about that we're getting elements of copilot announced. 0:28:47.830 --> 0:28:58.140 Michael Gannotti But really, we're seeing the synergy between that AI for generative AI and all it's doing, and the employee experience because they're one in the same. 0:28:59.960 --> 0:29:0.690 Michael Gannotti Right. 0:28:58.850 --> 0:29:1.110 Tyrelle Barnes Umm, absolutely, yeah. 0:29:0.880 --> 0:29:3.910 Michael Gannotti So like, you're talking about insights, right? 0:29:3.920 --> 0:29:27.50 Michael Gannotti All the value you get out of insights where we have the ability to slice and dice at different levels like organizational levels, what's going on and now being able to leverage that power to really, really light up what's happening with generative AI in your users that's that's that's a whole other level. 0:29:27.660 --> 0:29:28.880 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah, it's a game changer. 0:29:29.900 --> 0:29:30.140 Tyrelle Barnes Umm. 0:29:30.150 --> 0:29:30.870 Tyrelle Barnes And and it is. 0:29:30.880 --> 0:29:32.170 Tyrelle Barnes It's all interconnected. 0:29:33.300 --> 0:29:33.500 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:29:32.180 --> 0:29:40.310 Tyrelle Barnes I mean the the, UM it's it's hard to to and we've seen this over the years as as you can't silo things anymore. 0:29:40.360 --> 0:29:41.890 Tyrelle Barnes It's gotta be cross functional. 0:29:41.900 --> 0:29:45.10 Tyrelle Barnes It's gotta be considered at the leadership level. 0:29:50.560 --> 0:29:50.740 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:29:57.420 --> 0:29:57.560 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:29:45.240 --> 0:30:3.0 Tyrelle Barnes Cross functionally because it's impacting the employee and if you put the employee at the center, which is what we've done starting several years ago when we first launched the Viva platform is really to to try to come at it from the employees viewpoint. 0:30:3.100 --> 0:30:4.70 Tyrelle Barnes And So what? 0:30:4.80 --> 0:30:8.750 Tyrelle Barnes How does how do we bring all this to the employee where they're at in the flow of work? 0:30:8.800 --> 0:30:16.590 Tyrelle Barnes I'm whatever device they're happening happening to be using and, and that's what we're seeing come to life here and now being able to measure that. 0:30:16.600 --> 0:30:18.940 Tyrelle Barnes How is it going and which teams? Maybe. 0:30:18.380 --> 0:30:19.460 Michael Gannotti Which is important. 0:30:19.950 --> 0:30:20.350 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:30:20.360 --> 0:30:21.740 Tyrelle Barnes Which teams are struggling? 0:30:21.750 --> 0:30:23.330 Tyrelle Barnes Which teams are really benefiting? 0:30:32.970 --> 0:30:33.200 Michael Gannotti Mm-hmm. 0:30:33.270 --> 0:30:33.560 Michael Gannotti And. 0:30:33.250 --> 0:30:40.550 Tyrelle Barnes Or to other groups that aren't maybe using copilot yet or don't have access to it yet and you're able to do that with the copilot dashboard. 0:30:41.300 --> 0:30:42.270 Michael Gannotti That is awesome. 0:30:42.560 --> 0:30:44.270 Michael Gannotti I I I I can't. 0:30:45.200 --> 0:30:52.90 Michael Gannotti I cannot conceive of an organization rolling copilot out with not ensuring they have that capability. 0:30:53.170 --> 0:30:53.590 Tyrelle Barnes Right. 0:30:53.970 --> 0:30:54.440 Tyrelle Barnes Yes. 0:30:54.830 --> 0:30:55.300 Michael Gannotti Just me. 0:30:54.450 --> 0:30:55.480 Tyrelle Barnes And you know what? 0:31:0.600 --> 0:31:0.920 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:31:3.820 --> 0:31:4.0 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:30:55.570 --> 0:31:6.580 Tyrelle Barnes I'm so glad you said that cause organizations do that all the time they they make changes and they don't measure, they don't know what how it impacted things until maybe a year later when nothing changed. 0:31:6.990 --> 0:31:14.870 Tyrelle Barnes And you know the the transformation they were looking for wasn't achieved and they don't find out until it's almost too late. 0:31:15.490 --> 0:31:15.710 Michael Gannotti Yep. 0:31:14.910 --> 0:31:24.810 Tyrelle Barnes It's like the the more you can find out, you know, as you're going in real time in weeks, not months and years, the better off you're going to be. 0:31:25.230 --> 0:31:25.650 Michael Gannotti Hmm. 0:31:25.20 --> 0:31:26.280 Tyrelle Barnes That's agility, right? 0:31:26.870 --> 0:31:27.480 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:31:27.530 --> 0:31:28.940 Michael Gannotti No, I agree. 0:31:29.80 --> 0:31:42.840 Michael Gannotti So if you're looking at rolling out copilot like the rest of the world is looking at it, it seems these days you you really should be looking at because you really do wanna to measure that. 0:31:43.170 --> 0:31:43.350 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:31:43.700 --> 0:31:52.730 Michael Gannotti There were some other things that they announced in that portion too, around 365, like a the whole White Board and copilot and teams. 0:31:52.740 --> 0:31:53.250 Michael Gannotti Did you see that? 0:31:54.650 --> 0:31:55.160 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:31:55.170 --> 0:31:56.140 Tyrelle Barnes Tell me more about it. 0:31:56.150 --> 0:31:59.220 Tyrelle Barnes I I haven't been a big whiteboard user, but maybe that'll change. 0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:0.210 Michael Gannotti Yeah. 0:32:0.220 --> 0:32:7.920 Michael Gannotti So like couple of things like we've shown how we're you like for meetings, copilot in meetings, right rocking we also. 0:32:9.580 --> 0:32:18.50 Michael Gannotti Publicly announced now that if you're getting Microsoft 365 copilot, you'll get meeting recap with all that information. 0:32:27.520 --> 0:32:27.720 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:29.780 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:32:18.160 --> 0:32:34.620 Michael Gannotti But now we're taking it one step further and I used to use whiteboard all the time as an architect in the technology Microsoft Technology Center because you use it for for holding large meetings and you know, diagramming and all that. 0:32:32.960 --> 0:32:34.930 Tyrelle Barnes First used it in our MTC. 0:32:34.990 --> 0:32:35.640 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah, yeah. 0:32:36.340 --> 0:32:39.910 Michael Gannotti Now you can use it to to take and visualize. 0:32:40.60 --> 0:32:42.370 Michael Gannotti Using copilot will visualize. 0:32:42.380 --> 0:32:49.520 Michael Gannotti Now you're meeting points and notes right within that, like we had to go and manually write at the end in there. 0:32:53.50 --> 0:32:53.420 Tyrelle Barnes Right. 0:32:49.690 --> 0:32:59.390 Michael Gannotti You know, because we would turn over the whiteboard to the customer at the end with all our drawings, but we would have to go in and manually do a lot of the points of what's been brought up. 0:33:0.400 --> 0:33:2.540 Michael Gannotti Copilot do it for you. 0:33:2.160 --> 0:33:4.400 Tyrelle Barnes So copilot creates the white board. 0:33:5.30 --> 0:33:6.100 Michael Gannotti No way you create. 0:33:6.110 --> 0:33:7.500 Michael Gannotti You have white board, right? 0:33:7.990 --> 0:33:8.150 Tyrelle Barnes Yeah. 0:33:7.590 --> 0:33:9.120 Michael Gannotti And it's gonna be able to. 0:33:9.410 --> 0:33:14.420 Michael Gannotti It's what they're talking about is visualized, spoken discussion points and organizing them. 0:33:14.490 --> 0:33:26.180 Michael Gannotti So if you're recording them meeting like we're doing it has that it has access to the transcript, they can go in and do those summaries and visualize them for you. Right. 0:33:26.190 --> 0:33:26.760 Michael Gannotti And whiteboard. 0:33:27.280 --> 0:33:28.830 Tyrelle Barnes Now that's super cool. 0:33:29.160 --> 0:33:29.360 Michael Gannotti That's. 0:33:29.120 --> 0:33:30.380 Tyrelle Barnes I can't wait to see that. 0:33:31.140 --> 0:33:37.400 Michael Gannotti That is very cool and we will have links to that here so people can see all that. 0:33:37.460 --> 0:33:48.310 Michael Gannotti There's a whole lot other things there, you know, they they talked about copilot and outlook to make things easier around meeting preparation and meeting scheduling. 0:33:48.320 --> 0:33:49.510 Michael Gannotti So that's coming. 0:33:49.620 --> 0:33:50.750 Michael Gannotti You'll see more on that. 0:33:50.760 --> 0:33:53.710 Michael Gannotti We already talked about the copilot in. 0:33:56.200 --> 0:33:56.990 Tyrelle Barnes No, we didn't. 0:33:53.720 --> 0:34:0.490 Michael Gannotti Oh, we didn't talk about copilot in loop, but copilot in loop, not just general availability. 0:34:1.990 --> 0:34:8.290 Michael Gannotti When you go in to start a, typically people would go into insert. 0:34:8.340 --> 0:34:13.900 Michael Gannotti They either do a forward slash or click where it says do a forward slash at the very top. 0:34:13.910 --> 0:34:16.830 Michael Gannotti Now is copilot and you can do things like. 0:34:16.840 --> 0:34:19.500 Michael Gannotti Hey I want to do a brainstorm. 0:34:19.570 --> 0:34:25.660 Michael Gannotti Let's get a baseline brainstorm around how can I increase adoption in our org, where we're struggling with? 0:34:26.130 --> 0:34:27.140 Michael Gannotti I don't know with. 0:34:28.810 --> 0:34:39.560 Michael Gannotti With copilot or something and it'll it'll come out with a bulleted list that you can then go ahead and edit, change, add to with your team, right?
