Microsoft launches ‘vibe working’ in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint

Microsoft is releasing Agent Mode (previously called 'vibe working') in Office applications like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, which is a more advanced version of Copilot (an AI assistant) that can actively perform tasks in documents rather than just answer questions. Previously, the AI models weren't powerful enough to let Copilot directly control applications, so it could only provide passive help like answering user questions.
