AI is everywhere now, especially within the Microsoft 365 landscape. Therefore, it is time to start thinking about your strategy for implementing this into your organization. In this article, Mark Rackley dives into preparing and getting started with AI in Microsoft 365.
In our first show in season four, new co-host Rich Dean joins Steve and Paul to discuss preparing your Active Directory against compromises, new Microsoft Teams features, and Greg Taylor joins to talk about his upcoming session at TEC.
Join us on for this week's Practical 365 Podcast, where we discuss Microsoft Inspire, Teams Malware, and more Teams features.
On this week’s show, Paul and I are joined by industry veteran Mary Jo Foley, to talk about her keynote session at this year’s TEC conference this coming September – learn her view on how your priorities and Microsoft’s intersect and what value Microsoft 365 needs to deliver. Plus we’re talking new Power Platform and Teams AI-driven features plus there’s a plethora of new Azure AD & Entra features that help secure your environment and make it easier for complex organizations to work seamlessly together.
Active Directory has been around for almost 25 years. As such, one might expect that – by now – we would have figured out to keep it safe against attacks. Yet, it remains a weak point in many organizations' cybersecurity defenses. When coupled with the challenges mentioned above, this can be a recipe for disaster. Why is this the case?
On the show this week, we talk about a new report from Goldman Sachs on how Generative AI could affect 300 million jobs - and with Microsoft 365 Copilot on the front line, we consider how likely this is. And finally - Microsoft Teams "V2" - the new Teams has began appearing in Microsoft 365 tenants. Plus, you can replace your face with an Avatar, use the preview of the Loop App - and Windows 11 might be appearing on your Teams Rooms devices very soon.
Microsoft released the preview version of the Loop app on March 22. The app works well for collaboration with people from the same Microsoft 365 tenant but fails utterly once external people are involved. Some other teething problems are evident, but there's enough in the Loop app for people to make their minds up if this will make collaboration smarter within their organization.
In this week's show, Steve and Paul discuss Microsoft 365 Copilot. Not a sat-nav for your car, powered by the Microsoft Cloud, but an AI assistant that can help people with their daily tasks using OpenAI technologies. And nearly an episode doesn't go by without Exchange patches - but this time the Outlook issues could be pretty serious, so make sure you take a listen. Talking of Outlook - authenticator comes to mobile Outlook - is it a good thing? Plus much more..
