What changed:
Attendees in PowerPoint Live meetings can now select text on slides and ask Copilot for explanations, unlike before when slide content was static and non-interactive. This feature works within Microsoft 365 PowerPoint Live sessions and maintains data security by processing content within the meeting environment.
Why:
This change improves meeting engagement and comprehension by enabling attendees to interact directly with slide content and get immediate clarifications without leaving the presentation.
Try this:
Join a PowerPoint Live meeting as an attendee.
Select any text on a slide.
Copilot explains it for you in the side pane.
Why this matters:
Attendees gain better understanding of slide content, which supports clearer communication and more effective meetings.
Business impact:
Teams can collaborate more effectively during presentations by reducing misunderstandings and the need for follow-up questions.
Personal impact:
You can quickly clarify complex slide content during meetings, saving time and improving focus.
