Been testing the new Researcher + Analyst agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot and loving the results.
Analyst helps you visualize and summarize data like a pro.
Researcher is your new AI deep research intern.
I made a video to show how they work(with demos):

Had a fun time doing The Office trivia. The questions were hard (that’s what she said). It was hosted by Mr. Todd Packer himself, David Koechner and we got to meet him! Such a nice guy and funny as ever.
