Microsoft Copilot (Microsoft 365): People Skills - Expanded AI inferencing for E3/E5 users

Microsoft 365 Message Center Archive by Merill Fernando

Summary

People Skills is expanding AI powered skill inferencing to include Microsoft 365 E3 and E5 licensed users. Previously, AI powered skill inferencing was available only to Microsoft 365 Copilot and Microsoft Viva licensed users. With this update, admins will have the option to turn on AI powered skill inferencing for Microsoft 365 E3 / E5 licensed users directly in the Microsoft 365 admin center. AI powered skill inferencing uses AI to automatically identify and update skills on users’ Microsoft 365 profiles based on their work activity from the Microsoft Graph. This control will be available to tenants with Copilot licenses.
