What are the main advantages of using Copilot for Power BI users who are not experienced with DAX or M code?

I’m interested in understanding how Power BI Copilot can assist users who lack advanced skills in DAX or M code. What specific features or capabilities make it easier for beginners to create complex calculations and data transformations? Could you share examples of how Copilot bridges this skill gap?

Power BI Copilot is fantastic for users who are not keen on studying DAX or M code. The primary strength of this feature lies in its interpretation of commands and their conversion into concrete events through calculations or transformations of the data. As an example, instead of writing the DAX formula year-to-date sales, a user types it as "Calculate total sales year-to-date" and lets Copilot build the formula for him. Technical barriers are removed; therefore, users spend more time on analysis.

Another feature is that Copilot also advises and gives directions. When it generates DAX or M queries, it clarifies what the formula does, making it easier for novice users to learn the logic behind it. This development is particularly useful for beginners who want to know how various calculations behave without going into technical documentation. Over time, they can begin to have confidence in generating their formulas and transformations.

Copilot fills gaps in skill levels even further by suggesting improvements or optimizations to existing calculations. For example, a user creates a new measure called profit margin; Copilot will refine or even optimize that measure, usually through the addition of new conditions. Such features empower users with marginal technical skills to create professional reports and dashboards, leveling the playing field in data analysis
