Copilot is a generative AI tool that helps you get the most out of your data in Power BI. It allows you to create reports automatically by selecting the information for a report or by prompting Copilot on a particular topic. Copilot can also create a narrative visual that generates a summary of your report using generative AI. You can interact with Copilot in several different ways in Power BI, such as opening the Copilot pane and asking Copilot to create a report page or a summary of a page. Copilot can generate synonyms for Q&A to help your report readers find what they’re looking for in your reports. Additionally, Copilot can be used to build DAX calculations without being a DAX expert!
