Microsoft is filling Teams with AI agents
"Facilitator agents will now sit in on Teams meetings, creating agendas, taking notes, and answering questions. Agents can also suggest time allotments for different meeting topics - letting participants know if they're running over - and create documents and tasks. A mobile version is designed to be activated "with a single tap" so you can make sure the agent doesn't miss out on "a quick hallway chat or a spontaneous in-person sync.""
"Channel agents are designed to answer questions based on a channel's previous conversations and meetings and can also generate status reports for a project the same way. There are also community agents inside Viva Engage, Microsoft's take on company-wide social networks, which work similarly but mostly serve to support community admins, answering questions from other users. Knowledge agents run in SharePoint behind the scenes, organizing, tagging, and summarizing files."
Microsoft is deploying AI agents across Teams channels, meetings, and communities, extending functionality into SharePoint and Viva Engage for Microsoft 365 Copilot users. Facilitator agents join meetings to create agendas, take notes, answer questions, suggest time allotments, and generate documents and tasks, with a mobile activation option. Channel agents answer queries from prior conversations and meetings and can produce project status reports. Community agents in Viva Engage assist community admins by answering user questions. Knowledge agents operate in SharePoint to organize, tag, and summarize files. Several features and abilities are available now or entering public preview.
