A few days ago, we held a very well attended and successful webinar on our enterprise AI implementation methodology based on the application capabilities of Microsoft AI solutions, especially M365 Copilot, the summary of which is below. Interestingly, we also used AI for this summary: from the raw text automatically transcribed by Microsoft Teams, we edited and supplemented the text suggested by Microsoft Copilot with a minimum of time.
Introduction and Welcome
The webinar aimed to demonstrate the effective enterprise deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Microsoft Copilot. Led by the Neuron Solutions team, Gyula Kovács, Zoltán Laki, and Andrei Damsa detailed the Copilot system and its potential for adding value to everyday business processes. Ottó Werschitz, the business development director at Neuron Solutions and the moderator of the webinar, welcomed the audience, emphasizing the role of AI in transforming modern workplaces. Attendees were encouraged to explore the possibilities offered by Copilot, which can simultaneously enhance business efficiency and creativity.
Presentations
- Technological Introduction and Toolkit
In the first presentation, Zoltán Laki, COO of Neuron Solutions, offered a detailed overview of Microsoft Copilot, which is closely integrated with Office applications. This allows users to easily create automated documents, summaries, and task lists. The system provides significant support in managing emails, organizing calendars, and working with Excel spreadsheets. The speaker highlighted that Copilot already saves users considerable time by summarizing meetings, forecasting tasks, and simplifying daily administrative tasks. Furthermore, as an AI, Copilot continuously evolves, handling increasingly complex tasks to boost office efficiency.
- Challenges During Implementation
In the second presentation, Gyula Kovács, the company’s CEO, focused on potential pitfalls of AI deployment in enterprises. While the technology can be applied across almost any business, challenges inevitably arise. The speaker warned that expectations are often too high, with many believing AI can solve everything, eliminating the need for human intervention. This is misleading, as AI can assist in many areas but cannot replace everything.
Another common pitfall is insufficient preparation for implementation. Many start deploying AI without adequate knowledge of how the system works and what specific tasks it can perform. The presentation also pointed out that one of the biggest mistakes during implementation is treating technological solutions in isolation from the rest of the organization, preventing them from integrating into everyday workflows.
- Strategic Approach and Organizational Challenges
During the third presentation, Andrei Damsa, the Director of Consulting and Training, gave a detailed overview of the “AI Launchpad” deployment methodology, specifically developed for the smooth integration of artificial intelligence. The “AI Launchpad” methodology is built on three main pillars: the human factor, the technological toolkit, and the encouragement and support of usage. The first pillar focuses on providing proper training for employees and ensuring the correct use of artificial intelligence. The second pillar helps in the selection and application of appropriate technological tools, while the third pillar aims to promote and support the use of Copilot, so that the technology truly becomes an integral part of corporate operations. The speaker emphasized that integrating the Copilot system is not just a technological step but also requires a strategic transformation, which provides the company with an opportunity to enhance its competitiveness and operate more efficiently.
Panel Discussion (including written responses to questions)
The panel featured numerous questions, with some answered in writing by the presenters. A key topic was management’s commitment, which is crucial for successful AI system adoption. Leadership support is important not only due to costs and risks but also for AI’s long-term applicability.
The question of Microsoft Fabric Copilot’s Hungarian language support also arose. The presenters indicated that English usage is currently recommended, as support for other languages remains limited. For on-premise usage of Copilot, it was stated that while the system is fundamentally cloud-based, similar solutions can be built on local infrastructure, though these require significant technical readiness.
Additional questions addressed natural language capabilities and Copilot’s translation capabilities, which are competitive with Deepl, although limitations exist for large-volume translations. Infrastructure costs were also discussed, particularly concerning regulatory compliance and security, largely dependent on the organization’s size and needs.
Finally, a humorous question was asked: “Will the summary be created with Copilot?” The presenters responded with a resounding yes and promised to produce an English version of the summary.
Conclusion and Farewell
At the end of the event, the Neuron Solutions team emphasized that Microsoft Copilot is not just a technological innovation but a strategic tool that also supports business growth. Participants will receive further summaries of the webinar and are invited to consult on deployment matters. The presenters encouraged the audience to embark on their AI journey and leverage the advantages of the Copilot system.
Summary
The webinar provided a comprehensive overview of how Microsoft Copilot can enhance corporate operations, while AI-driven results can elevate organizational performance to new heights.
