Microsoft is preparing to integrate AI features with Office apps such as Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
The company is tentatively scheduled to reveal the plans publicly in March.
- Microsoft is reportedly integrating OpenAI's new Prometheus AI model and language technology into the Office productivity apps.
- Prometheus, which also underpins the AI in Microsoft's new Bing search engine, is based on a next-generation OpenAI model more powerful than ChatGPT.
- In Outlook, AI could be used to improve search results and suggest replies to emails.
- GPT technology in Word could suggest alternative words and phrases while the user types.
- Microsoft could add AI capabilities to other applications in the Microsoft 365 Office productivity suite.
