According to the reports, Microsoft will also embed a version of the technology in the office apps, including Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Outlook. It also says there are high risks of artificial intelligence (AI) risks, including spreading misinformation and bias along with a particular threat to jobs.

Also, GDPR suggests and governs how one can use, store, and process personal data. Watchdog also recently informed about the data breach involving payment information and user conversations.
