The AI will soon be able to offer you insights and information from the meeting chat and the transcript, so if something was either written or spoken, Copilot will be able to pull from it. Microsoft says that when you open Copilot in a meeting chat, you’ll have a “more comprehensive and inclusive view” of what you and your collaborators discussed.

As far as bringing Copilot to the message compose box goes, the AI can now help you rewrite a drafted message based on a custom prompt.
