Microsoft Copilot (Microsoft 365): Now smarter with visuals: Declarative Agents leverage embedded images for richer, more accurate answers

Why it matters: Generally available

Declarative Agents have been enhanced to interpret and ground responses using images embedded in files such as Word documents (.docx), PowerPoint presentations (.pptx), and PDFs. This capability allows the agent to extract insights from visual elements like charts, diagrams, and screenshots, ensuring that answers are not only text-based but also informed by graphical context. By combining textual and visual understanding, Declarative Agents deliver more comprehensive and contextually accurate responses for complex queries.
