Microsoft Search: How to find relevant info with Copilot

Microsoft Search is building a name for itself already. The tool allows you to find relevant information about people, resources, and data across your working organization.

The tool also makes use of Microsoft Graph, and shows enhanced searches, giving you access to files, data, and items closest to you and work.

In a recent post, Microsoft announced the Semantic Index for Copilot, and it seems Microsoft Search will also benefit from it. What does that mean?

It means every time you use the tool to find something, the results that you find will be far more personalized and relevant to you.

The good news is that you can use it from anywhere. The tool is native to Microsoft 365. Virtually, you can search for information in Microsoft Teams, or Outlook. You can even use it in Bing or other desktop and phone browsers.
