Microsoft Teams: Facilitator detects and answers questions

Summary

Facilitator now automatically detects open questions raised during a Teams meeting and offers to help answer them using web search. When a participant asks a question (e.g., “What is an LLM?”) and no one answers, Facilitator posts a prompt offering to find an answer. Participants can select “Yes” to have the agent retrieve and share the information.
