  • I have Copilot for Microsoft 365 at work. Instead of getting Copilot to write my email for me, I tried the Coaching by Copilot in Outlook. This flips the roles where Copilot prompts me with suggestions to improve my messages.
    Watch me craft two emails and see the suggestions Copilot makes about my tone, sentiment and clarity.

    I can't get enough to say how such a great communicator you are, Darrell! I feel like you are by my side, explaining what Copilot in Outlook can do with emails, with no hurry to leave. Yes, it's like you are in no hurry to go away and finish the video. It's unusual to see someone like you in RUclips - everyone speaks fast to make the instructions fit in few minutes and to end a video to start another one soon. You are really awesome, Darrell! I always learn a lot with you!! Thanks once more!

      Thank you again Cassio. I like to explore things and spend a little more time on analysis and understanding why we make certain decisions.

      @@DarrellaaS That's why I felt the way as I've described. Your way to demonstrate those points was like you were "talking in a loud voice"... Seems like you were demonstrating it for the first time and saying "Ok well, what do I do now? Let's test this...". It's really amazing this naturalness.

      Sometimes I am demonstrating for the first time 😆. When something happens unexpectedly, I am comfortable with trying to work around it, explain it or solve it.

    I’ll be curious to see, at scale, how much value this generates.

      One thing I didn’t try was selecting specific text and using Coaching. I think it only works with the whole draft message.
      I can see value in requesting help with selected text. I also want to see improvements in highlighting and accepting suggestions made by Copilot.

    For me, Copilot coached me to use "Hello, I hope this email finds you well. " 🤔🤔

      I have received the same coaching on other occasions too. This opening phrase has surged in popularity during the COVID pandemic. It’s an interesting phrase, as if the message was sent in perilous times and made it across battlefields and stormy seas 😄
