Understanding Copilot and Power Platform 

Microsoft 365 Copilot is a groundbreaking AI tool that uses large language models (LLMs) and integrates them with Microsoft Graph and the suite of Microsoft 365 applications. This integration transforms your words and ideas into productivity resources, streamlining tasks like content generation, data analysis, and more. 

Microsoft Power Platform is a collaborative suite of tools designed to streamline business processes and application development. It offers low-code tools that empower users, from business analysts to citizen developers and IT professionals, to create custom applications and automated workflows. 

The power of words| Copilot in Power Platform 

Long before Copilot, Power Platform had simplified low-code app development. However, the integration of Copilot takes this ease to new heights. Copilot in Power Platform, still in preview, allows you to create apps and workflows by simply describing your ideas to an AI engine, like sharing your holiday wishlist with Santa.
