Copilot in Meetings
Microsoft says that Copilot will now provide insights from the meeting chat in addition to the meeting transcript. When users open Copilot in the meeting chat, they will have a more comprehensive and inclusive view of what was covered in the meeting, which includes transcript of what was spoken and what written in the chat.
