Microsoft Unveils Enhanced Productivity with Vibe Working in Office Apps

Microsoft has introduced a revamped version of its Copilot AI-powered assistant, dubbed “vibe working,” which is now integrated into Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, marking a significant upgrade to the existing Agent Mode. According to Sumit Chauhan, corporate vice president of Microsoft’s Office Product Group, the initial release of Copilot was limited by the capabilities of foundation models, resulting in a passive experience that only provided answers but lacked the ability to take action on the canvas. With vibe working, Microsoft has made significant strides to address this limitation, enabling users to command its applications with greater precision and accuracy. This enhanced feature promises to revolutionize productivity in business environments, allowing professionals to tap into AI-driven assistance more effectively than ever before.
