Microsoft 365 Copilot gets a speed boost and cleaner design

Microsoft 365 Copilot 迎来速度提升与界面优化

Microsoft is launching a revamped version of Microsoft 365 Copilot, offering a cleaner design that the company claims loads twice as fast. As part of this update, Copilot will provide more reliable and structured responses that are easier to scan, according to Microsoft.

微软正在推出 Microsoft 365 Copilot 的升级版本，带来了更简洁的设计，据称加载速度提升了两倍。微软表示，作为此次更新的一部分，Copilot 将提供更可靠、结构更清晰的回复，使用户能够更轻松地浏览信息。

The redesign, which is rolling out across desktop and mobile devices, comes with a feature Microsoft calls “progressive disclosure.” That means Copilot will present you with tools and controls based on your prompt, instead of showing a bunch of options at once. You can now format your text directly inside Copilot’s upgraded prompt box as well, which will expand to fit everything you type or paste in.

此次重新设计正逐步覆盖桌面端和移动端设备，并引入了一项微软称之为“渐进式披露”（progressive disclosure）的功能。这意味着 Copilot 将根据你的提示词提供相应的工具和控件，而不是一次性展示所有选项。此外，你现在可以直接在 Copilot 升级后的提示框内对文本进行格式化，该提示框还会根据你输入或粘贴的内容自动扩展。

Google similarly launched a big design update for its Gemini AI app last week, allowing the chatbot to structure its responses based on your prompt.

谷歌上周也为其 Gemini AI 应用推出了重大的设计更新，允许聊天机器人根据用户的提示词来组织回复结构。

Inside Microsoft 365 apps, Copilot opens within a side panel, where it can answer questions, or suggest and make changes to your document. You can also open up a chat window from within a paragraph, spreadsheet cell, or slide.

在 Microsoft 365 应用内部，Copilot 会在侧边栏中打开，用户可以在此提问，或让它对文档提出建议并进行修改。你也可以直接在段落、电子表格单元格或幻灯片中打开聊天窗口。
