微软将在Microsoft 365 Copilot中引入基于AI的“深度研究”工具,名为Researcher和Analyst。Researcher结合了OpenAI的深度研究模型和高级编排、深度搜索功能,可用于市场策略制定和季度报告等分析。Analyst基于OpenAI的o3-mini推理模型,专注于高级数据分析,能够迭代解决问题,并使用Python处理复杂数据查询。与竞争对手相比,微软工具的独特之处在于能够访问工作数据和全球网络数据。微软推出了Frontier项目,让Microsoft 365 Copilot客户率先体验Researcher和Analyst。

💡Researcher是一款结合了OpenAI深度研究模型、高级编排和深度搜索功能的工具。它能够执行包括制定市场进入策略和创建客户季度报告在内的分析。

📊Analyst基于OpenAI的o3-mini推理模型构建,专注于高级数据分析。该工具能够迭代解决问题,并通过Python处理复杂的、详细的数据查询。

🌐微软的深度研究工具的一个独特优势是能够访问工作数据和全球网络数据。Researcher可以利用第三方数据连接器,从Confluence、ServiceNow和Salesforce等AI“代理”、工具和应用程序中提取数据。

⚠️然而,确保Researcher和Analyst等工具不会产生幻觉或编造信息是真正的挑战。o3-mini和深度研究等模型并非完美,有时会出现引用错误、得出不正确结论以及从可疑公共网站获取信息的情况。

🚀微软推出了Frontier项目,使Microsoft 365 Copilot客户能够率先体验Researcher和Analyst。参与Frontier项目的用户将从4月份开始获得Researcher和Analyst的使用权。

Microsoft is introducing a “deep research” AI-powered tool in Microsoft 365 Copilot, its AI chatbot app.

There’s been a raft of deep research agents launched recently across chatbots, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, and xAI’s Grok. Powering them are so-called reasoning AI models, which posses the ability to think through problems and fact-check themselves — skills arguably important for conducting in-depth research on a subject.

Microsoft’s flavors are called Researcher and Analyst.

Researcher combines OpenAI’s deep research model — which powers the company’s own ChatGPT deep research tool — with “advanced orchestration” and “deep search capabilities.” Microsoft claims that Researcher can perform analyses including developing a go-to-market strategy and creating a quarterly report for a client.

As for Analyst, it’s built on OpenAI’s o3-mini reasoning model and is “optimized to do advanced data analysis,” Microsoft said. Analyst progresses through problems iteratively, taking steps to refine its “thinking” and provide a detailed answer to queries. Analyst can also run the programming language Python to tackle complex data queries, Microsoft added, and expose its “work” for inspection.

What makes Microsoft’s deep research tools slightly more unique than the competition is their access to work data as well as the worldwide web. For example, Researcher can tap third-party data connectors to draw on data from AI “agents,” tools, and apps like Confluence, ServiceNow, and Salesforce.

Granted, the real challenge is ensuring tools such as Researcher and Analyst don’t hallucinate or otherwise make stuff up. Models including o3-mini and deep research are by no means perfect; from time to time, they mis-cite work, draw incorrect conclusions, and pull from dubious public websites to inform their reasoning.

Microsoft is launching a new Frontier program through which Microsoft 365 Copilot customers can gain access to Researcher and Analyst. Those enrolled in Frontier, which going forward will gain experimental Copilot features first, will get Researcher and Analyst starting in April.
