LLM models - ChatGPT and MS Copilot intro4:04
In this lecture we will focus on two most common AI models - ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot. IN the materials you can find different licences of those two tools as well as overview of another tools where we compare them in terms of Text LLM AI tools. Feel free to download both.
LLM models - ChatGPT and MS Copilot hands-on11:47
In this lesson we will learn how the ChatGPT and Copilot environments look like

E-mails and invites prompting with ChatGPT and Perplexity5:31
In this lesson, we’ll focus on one of the most common tasks at work, writing and replying to emails.
Why start here? Because emails take up a huge part of our day, and generative AI can help you save hours every week by drafting, summarizing, and translating them for you.
Work with text in MS Word with ChatGPT8:59
In this lesson we will learn how to leverage ChatGPT (or you can try the same in another AI tool like Copilot, Perplexity etc.) for summarizing document and searching an information there
Work with text and emails with MS Copilot3:14
Let's see how to use MS Copilot integrated in MS Outlook and MS Word
Emails and calendars with MS Copilot5:42
In this lecture we will work with MS Copilot and its use for preparing for meeting
Google apps with ChatGPT2:21
After this leesons you will be able to work with Copilot and GPT within your email inboxes (Outlook and Gmail). To try one more magic - copy the prompt in the attachment and do not forget to change the domains XXX, YYY, ZZZ etc. based on your preferences and you will receive e-maily summarization including prioritization based on your preferences.
MS Teams Meeting summarization0:17
To save time, you can take advantage of Copilot in Microsoft Teams. When you record a meeting, Copilot (available in the paid version) can automatically summarize the discussion, highlight key information, and generate a clear to-do list, so you can focus on the conversation instead of note-taking. Check the material in PDF where you can see how Copilot in MS Teams looks like.
Because of sensitive data, I cannot show it in the video, however its usage, same as usage Copilot in another MS applications, is very simple :-)

Introduction to the modul1:49
How AI can help you with formulas and analyze your data3:59
In this leeson we will learn how get help from AI regarding the formulas in Excel.
Let Copilot to make predictions, create pivot table and searching for info7:32
Copilot in MS Excel can help us to save time to let it do basic information searching, calculate metric, create pivot table as well as line plot.
Copilot in MS Power BI3:42
Let's see how Copilot helps us to search for information, calculate metric or generate new dashboard by one single prompt.

Introduction to the modul1:27
MS Copilot in Power Point4:40
We will learn how to use Copilot directly in Power Point for topics like creating summary, translating the whole Power Point document into foreign language or how to create new Presentation based on another document. Please when working with me, use any of your presentation and in the second part (where we will learn how to create new presentation) any Word document or even PDF.
Using GPT and Gamma for Presentations7:12
This lecture will show you how to ask GPT to summarize Presentation or how to prepare yourself for a conference speech. In the second part, I will illustrate how to use GPT and Gamma - they build a strong AI tool together!
Publishing webpage by using AI1:51

Introduction to the modul2:10
Working with agents in MS Copilot4:58
This lecture illustrates how to create, edit and share the agents in Copilot. We will create one from scratch and I will show you already existing one.
Working with Custom GPTs4:55
In this lessons we will learn how to create and work with Custom GPT (sometimes known as AI assistants). We use system prompt to configure our custom GPT. We just ask GPT to prepare this custom GPT. But of course, you can write it by yourself, as well as let it generate as we did and than either take it how it is or do some polishing before you paste it into the instruction window.
AI agents step by step1:19

Requirements

Basic computer literacy
Open mind and curiosity to experiment with new tools.
No programming knowledge required
Some lessons show features available only in the paid versions of tools (e.g., Copilot, GPT, Gamma) – free versions or trials will still let you follow along.

Description

Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a buzzword, it’s a tool you can use every single day.
