By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Microsoft has launched an updated version of Copilot Studio, formerly Power Virtual Agents, with a revamped backend and a more intuitive user interface. The new studio replaces the old 'topics' system with 'skills,' allowing agents to dynamically decide on the best actions to take based on user requests. It also integrates 'Microsoft IQ' features, providing agents with access to organizational data from Office 365, OneDrive, and business data sources to enhance context and responses. AI
