ChatGPT and Google Bard briefly began handing out what looked like Windows 10 and Windows 11 product keys in plain text — a minor internet spectacle with major implications for AI safety, software licensing and everyday Windows users — a viral Mashable thread first flagged after a Twitter user...

Microsoft has quietly changed one of Excel’s oldest conventions: now you can call an AI assistant from inside a worksheet cell the same way you call SUM or VLOOKUP — with a new COPILOT function that accepts plain‑language prompts, references ranges and tables, and returns dynamic, spillable...

Microsoft has moved a generative AI assistant from the sidebar into the spreadsheet grid itself: the new COPILOT function turns plain‑English prompts into live Excel formulas and structured outputs that behave like any other formula in your workbook. Background / Overview Excel’s power has...

Kansas City legal professionals who postpone practical, governed adoption of AI in 2025 risk ceding measurable efficiency gains to competitors — but adoption must be paired with concise policies, hands‑on pilots, and documented ethics training to manage confidentiality, discoverability, and IP...

Microsoft has pushed generative AI squarely into the heart of Excel with a native =COPILOT(...) formula that lets users type natural‑language prompts directly into cells, reference worksheet ranges for context, and receive live, spillable AI outputs that recalculate automatically as the source...

Most Australian small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are already using generative AI tools — but more often than not they’re doing so without a coherent plan, leaving businesses exposed to security, cost, and strategic risks while missing opportunities to drive growth and competitive advantage...

Microsoft has quietly moved generative AI from the Copilot side‑pane into Excel’s calculation engine itself, with a new COPILOT function that lets you call Copilot from any cell, pass natural‑language prompts and cell ranges as context, and receive live, recalculating outputs that behave like...

Microsoft has put a generative AI assistant where most knowledge workers spend the bulk of their time: directly into Excel’s grid with a new COPILOT function that lets Microsoft 365 Copilot run natural-language prompts inside individual cells and return multi-cell arrays, categories, summaries...

Microsoft Copilot is now a practical, multi-platform AI companion that can draft documents, summarize threads, generate images, read your screen, and act on your behalf — but getting the most from it takes more than a casual prompt. This guide explains what Copilot is, how to sign up (including...

Bellevue’s hospitality sector now faces a clear and measurable shift: routine, language‑heavy, and transaction‑focused roles are the most exposed to generative AI, and local workers who master hybrid human+AI workflows will retain the highest-value work while protecting wages and employment...

Google has rolled Gemini-powered image editing directly into Google Slides and Google Vids, adding two AI tools — Replace background and Background expansion — that let users swap or extend image backgrounds with text prompts and intelligent outpainting. The features aim to help non-designers...

Microsoft’s Security Copilot arrives at a time when defenders are drowning in alerts, and the product’s promise is simple but consequential: apply generative AI to compress investigation time, automate routine triage, and translate dense telemetry into actionable decisions for security teams and...

Microsoft has begun rolling out GPT-5 inside Visual Studio via GitHub Copilot, bringing OpenAI’s newest coding model to paid Copilot users and promising faster responses, stronger reasoning on large problems, and clearer, more maintainable code suggestions that can handle end-to-end engineering...

Every day you get curious — and increasingly, your first stop is an AI chatbot instead of a search page. The short primer published on News Ghana captures that shift: chatbots promise plain‑language, real‑time answers without the SEO noise of a link pile, and they respond far better when you ask...
