Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription. -

To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all? -

Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha. -

That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs. -

Arkane, Ninja Theory, and Double Fine might be on the chopping block too.

Question
Marshalus Veteran
Third time is a charm eh folks? I've got the funding, I've got the people, now I just need the logo!
HostFalcon.com, an internet service provider specializing in small business site hosting, has commissioned a contest to create a new and unique branding for their soon be opened business.
The winning logo will help set the tone for the layout, color and theme for the rest of the company web presence.
The contest will run for an undetermined length of time and participants from around the Internet community are encouraged to enter.
First prize is $40 AND 6 months of free hosting on a basic HostFalcon plan. Two runners up will receive 25% off any plan for three months.
Winners will be decided exclusively by the management of HostFalcon.
Requirements
The name of the company (HostFalcon) should be present on any logo design along with our slogan (Set your sites higher) if deemed feasible by the designer.
The branding elements should be on a white background and be easily applied to any white or light gray without recoloring. Any text used should be a sans-serif font. HostFalcon prefers the use of a simple and minimalist design.
Only Photoshop importable formats will be accepted.
Uses
The winning branding will be used on our website, in online and possible print advertisements, letter headers, company shirts, business cards, etc.
Exclusive rights must be provided to us by the author.
Good luck!

Additional Information
The following issues have come up through the thread.
- A cash prize has been added.
- You can submit as many variations or alternative designs as you wish.
- Please keep the negitive comments on other peoples work to yourself.
- Please do not ask for public feedback from me on your submission.
APRIL 3 UPDATE: The entry process is now closed. Unless you come up with something breathtaking we're going to use what we've taken so far and make a choice from there. We have narrowed the field down to about 5 logos that stand out from the rest as being the type of branding we'd be able to use and would help set us apart a bit from our competitors.
I have no timeline on getting a winner announced. Of course I'll let everyone know when that happens.
Thanks everyone for the great submissions, you've made it really hard for the judges to choose a winner.
