[What and why]
Microsoft is bringing featured playlists from AI Skills Navigator into Learning Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot. Featured playlists bring related learning resources together around a role, product, or skill. Users can discover these structured collections through natural language conversations in Learning Agent, helping them spend less time searching individual learning resources and more time building practical AI skills.
Users can discover featured playlists with prompts such as:
- What playlists can help me build AI skills for sales?
- Find a playlist that helps me create better marketing campaigns with AI.
- Recommend some playlists to help me do code reviews faster using AI.
- Find me some playlists that help me manage my company's AI costs better.
- Show me some playlists on how I can get more done at work using agents.
