    We're making a big change to the Copilot experience. Agent Mode is generally available and now the default across Copilot in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. As models become more capable, we're bringing that power to where real work happens, right in the canvas. The power of a

    Microsoft is launching “vibe working” in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint this week. The new Copilot Agent Mode can make edits in documents, and is now default for Microsoft 365 Copilot and Premium subscribers. Details here 👇 https://www.theverge.com/...

    To mark the broad rollout of Agent Mode in Copilot, we had some fun recreating an iconic 90s Excel ad: same ad, smarter Excel. [video]
