Recap from Copilot for Microsoft 365:

Main ideas:

Webinar overview: The document is a transcript of a webinar hosted by Robert Crane on March 20, 2021, about Microsoft 365 updates and forms.

Microsoft Copilot for Security: One of the major updates in Microsoft 365 is the launch of Microsoft Copilot for Security, a cloud-based AI service that analyzes security logs and helps detect and respond to threats.

Surface devices with Copilot button: Microsoft also announced new Surface devices with a Copilot button that can launch the AI assistant directly. The devices have a neural processing unit for local AI calculations.

Microsoft Forms update: Microsoft Forms has a new user interface and features, such as multilingual support, email receipts, and quick polls. There is also a Forms Pro version with more capabilities.

Forms integration with Stream: Forms can be integrated with Stream, Microsoft’s video platform, to add interactivity and feedback to videos. Users can embed forms in Stream videos and see the results in real time.
