Turbocharge Your Research with Microsoft's Powerful Copilot AI

Microsoft's Copilot AI chatbot can be used as a powerful research tool for both business and personal use. With its ability to provide in-depth information, Copilot can help users conduct thorough research quickly and efficiently.

To get the most out of Copilot for research, users should choose the right mode depending on their needs. The 'Think deeper' mode provides a deeper dive into topics and takes around 15 seconds, while the 'Search' mode gives citations and links, but is two to four times slower than the default 'Smart' mode.

It's also essential to limit Copilot to reputable sources by specifying where it should look for information. Users can upload files or point Copilot at specific websites to ensure accurate results. Additionally, using images and videos can help users analyze data more effectively, such as determining copyright status or analyzing product construction methods.

Copilot can also be used to search through personal data stored in OneDrive, Google Drive, email, calendar, and contacts. This feature allows users to find specific files and emails related to a project or topic of interest.
