How this affects your organization
Who is affected

Once setup is complete, users can select the New Slide with Copilot icon in the PowerPoint ribbon, enter a prompt, and choose their preferred image source—either Microsoft 365 images or their organization’s branded image library—via the Image Source menu.
Note: We recommend enabling this feature only if your image library contains more than 1,000 images with robust metadata.
