What’s New in Microsoft 365 Copilot for Word Microsoft continues to evolve its Copilot capabilities in Word, bringing powerful new features that enhance productivity and streamline workflows. Two newly announced updates are rolling out this fall: First out of the gate is the integration of the Researcher Agent, allowing great content generation within Word itself.

I might have found a tiny bug already. It seems the “theme” download doesn’t download the correct settings, and the blog turns out strange. If the blog seems fine to you, let me know. It might just be a bug in the new IE-beta I’m running. I’ll let you know.
