Make your own infographics, slides, and forms with Create

- [Instructor] Microsoft Create is an incredibly powerful and super fun AI tool to help you visualize your data by creating images, infographics, flyers, and other business documents you may need, day to day. Still on the main portal, instead of clicking on chat, I'm going to click Create. Now the nice thing about Create is it's not limited to just the licensed version of Copilot. Anybody who has a Microsoft 365 account can use Create. You can use these buttons at the top of the screen to create something like an image, infographics, multi-image story, or you can click more to see some other things that Create can make. In the more menu, I'd like to particularly call out form as this is an incredibly useful tool. You can create surveys and polls, event registration forms, and more. It's just Microsoft Forms, except this way, you're doing it by describing what you want. You don't need to design it yourself, so you can describe the choices you want, or even better, click and add a file as a reference. For example, if you added an event itinerary by clicking add file here, and then we scroll down and look at the type of form that you can create, if you created a post-event feedback survey, the form would most likely automatically contain options to rate each item that was in the itinerary that you uploaded. So you can see how this gets incredibly time saving. When you click on each heading up here, you get examples to explore. And hovering your mouse over each example will tell you the sample prompt that you can use to create this. You can use this middle bar itself. You can click in sign to describe the type of image that you want. After that, you can click style to choose a style that you want. You can select a color scheme. And finally, you can choose a size. Wide is great for inserting into a PowerPoint presentation as a slide, or you can use square, which is great for social media. The nice thing about using this middle bar to click these buttons is you don't have to describe it. You can just click buttons. Let's go into design and infographic. Speaking of slides, this is a great way to insert a new PowerPoint slide. I'll click inside, describe your infographic. I'll create a prompt. Create an infographic comparing the solar products. What solar products, you say? Well, I'm going to click to add a file because I have these solar products already in the presentation that I'm working on, so I'll select that. I don't need to worry so much about brand and color. In the infographic type, I'm going to choose comparisons because I'm talking about products. And finally in size, because this is a slide, I don't want a long infographic. I want a wide one. I'll click Create, and let's see what it comes up with. Here we go. It's come up with the data, comparing Kinetico solar products, and it used this list directly from the content that was in the slide, so you might not be able to see these. They're a little small, but it's comparing two products and some of the options the infographic gave me were comparing things like energy output, charging time, efficiency, and applications. When I hover my mouse over this, I get the option to copy it so I can copy and paste it directly into Word or a PowerPoint. I can also download it directly and if I want to change it, I can. I can click edit and make any changes that I need to. So that's Create. Have a good time coming up with all sorts of visuals to use in your Office files.
