SB Technology Copilot introduced company-wide

"Microsoft 365 Copilot" is a generative AI service integrated into Microsoft 365 applications such as Word, Excel, and Microsoft Teams. It understands the user's work and can provide various support through dialogue, such as document creation, data analysis, and meeting preparation. With the company-wide introduction of Microsoft 365 Copilot, we will be able to take advantage of its features integrated into Microsoft 365 applications to simplify complex tasks and quickly organize information, dramatically improving work efficiency across the company. In addition, we plan to use the knowledge gained from company-wide use to strengthen sales and training services for Microsoft 365 Copilot.

■ AI initiatives in SBT and the future

Since last year, we have been developing a generative AI system using Azure OpenAI Service and using it company-wide. At the same time, we have been conducting proof-of-concept experiments of generative AI with customers, and have been continuously accumulating knowledge and know-how for improving productivity both inside and outside the company. "dailyAI," developed based on this knowledge, has highly scalable platform functions that meet various business needs, and continues to grow as a generative AI service that supports our customers' businesses. Going forward, we will further support our customers' businesses by developing services that take advantage of the respective characteristics of Microsoft 365 Copilot and dailyAI.

As a long-time Microsoft business partner, we have supported the digital transformation of over 1,200 companies. We will continue to leverage our strong partnership with Microsoft to provide cutting-edge technology and contribute to the growth of our customers.
