Business Apps, as i said earlier they collaborated their Microsoft 365, LinkedIn, Cortana and dynamic 365 which work well. For example, if we said "Am going to vacation next week" to Cortana, it helps you with automatic reply for the mails you receive in your vacation dates. All these apps work with AI technology.
