When it comes to Gen AI, I could hear people talking about Claude, ChatGPT so on and so forth, but I seldom hear people mention MS Copilot as if this Gen AI piece from Microsoft like never exists???!!!
I am not saying I love MS Copilot a lot, but it is the default Gen AI Tool allowed by my organization, as here we are almost fully on Microsoft Stack for work! Outlook for emails, Teams for internal and even external real time communication and Sharepoint for document management.
And recently I discovered the advantage of using the default Gen AI option of my work stack - it really tracks how i work every hour every minute every second and is able to generate pretty good summary for my performance! This is feasible because I always discuss stuff over Teams , so you can imagine how much detailed work history are there in Teams, not to mention the work emails and those docs I created and upload to Sharepoint.
September is the month to review first half performance, and I was able to produce a good summary of my team contributions and my key contributions to the team contributions pretty easily and quick! This will not be possible in the past without the help from Gen AI. MS Copilot did quite a great job for me here. So sometimes no need to pursue for what's the best in the market, if there is already a tool that serves the current need well, just use it! Don't fall for the brand name trap!
