During its Ignite conference, Microsoft rolled out capabilities powered by OpenAI\u2019s Codex, the code-generating machine learning system underpinning&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/06\/21\/copilot-githubs-ai-powered-programming-assistant-is-now-generally-available\/\">GitHub Copilot<\/a>. Starting today (in public preview), Power Automate users can write what they want to automate in natural language and have Codex generate suggestions to jumpstart the flow creation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s Microsoft\u2019s latest move to more tightly integrate the various technologies from OpenAI, the San Francisco AI startup in which it has&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2019\/07\/22\/microsoft-invests-1-billion-in-openai-in-new-multiyear-partnership\/\">invested<\/a>&nbsp;$1 billion, into its family of products. Two years ago, Microsoft introduced a Power Apps feature that used&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2021\/05\/25\/microsoft-uses-gpt-3-to-let-you-code-in-natural-language\/\">GPT-3<\/a>, OpenAI\u2019s text-generating system, to create formulas in Power Fx, Power Platform\u2019s programming language. Microsoft also continues to evolve&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/05\/24\/microsoft-expands-azure-openai-service-with-fine-tuning-features-and-more\/\">Azure OpenAI Service<\/a>, a fully managed, enterprise-focused platform designed to give businesses access to OpenAI innovations with governance features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur goal is that anywhere in the ecosystem that a person would need to write code they have the flexibility to start with natural language too, and Codex is core to that strategy,\u201d Stephen Siciliano, VP of Power Automate, told TechCrunch in an email interview. \u201c[These are] new tools that will help users eliminate tedious work and free up time for workers to focus on more high value projects.\u201d  <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2022\/10\/12\/2420274\/?guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAADnfO3o478SAmrLSvV2wcsrM5Wb7mUTZt5E--4ks8LMYYnmwC2xCj80VdsTE4Hq4-GK1OcQO9GJwd5EVQZ5RVmBtQd3giZVZAqSdAi0KVrbmTz7RJ2uqPw92_1DQWlrk5zIdbzjVYq7WHnT8ZVFV62_QuD4z1CNcW4_TOinpwb7_\" target=\"_blank\">Read On:<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So this looks like fun.
