GenAI content based on live Internet data

Hi there
 
I try to create a marketing content creation agent for the following use case:
  1. User: What are latest news from crypto?
  2. Agent: News 1, news 2, news 3
  3. User: Create 500 words article for news 2
  4. Agent: Here is your 500 words article about news 2 ...
For this, the agent needs two core capabilities:
  • Capability 1: Search the Internet for latest news on crypto
  • Capability 2: Search the Internet for content about a specific topic
How to do this in Copilot Studio or Power Automate without connecting to 3rd party automation platforms like Make.com or Zapier?
 
I tried the following:
  • Add a prompt action in Copilot Studio: Doesn't work because prompt action can't connect to live data from wide Internet (see screenshot below).
  • Add an AI Builder step in Power Automate: Same here... nice feature but unable to connect to live data from wide Internet (see screenshot below).
Any suggestions on how to do this most elegantly?
 
Thanks a lot in advance!

    GenAI content based on live Internet data
     
    Thanks a lot for your quick reply. Highly appreciated!
     
    And yes... last week's news can't be reflected in the X billion trained parameters of the LLM model itself. That's for sure.
     
    I was thinking in a different direction similar to the following solutions:
    • For Chat GPT: If you enter a prompt, you can activate the "Search the web" flag and Chat GPT will include the latest web data (like last week's crypto news in my use case) to create an answer to my prompt
    • For Microsoft 365 Copilot: I can set a flag indicating that Copilot should search the public web and not only my company's data and Intranet to answer my prompt.
    • And for Perplexity it's even not possible to not consider public web search in answering to the prompt (if I am not mistaken)
    Therefore, I would have expected to see exactly the same pattern in the "Create text with GPT using a prompt" of Microsoft's AI Builder (see 2nd screenshot above): Why not have a "Search the web" flag next to your prompt in the "Create a text with GPT using a prompt" input box.... just the same as when entering a prompt in Chat GPT? I am sure this would be highly useful for many use cases.
     
    I guess that the reason for not seeing the "Search a web" flag is that this is just not yet implemented by Microsoft and will (hopefully) come soon.
     
    But in the meantime, I need a solution. It would be super cool (and probably very useful for many other builders) if we could collect a couple of recommendations here regarding how to solve this in an elegant way.
     
    Any suggestions or ideas that I could try and then report back?

    GenAI tools are trained. Training takes time (and a LOT of electricity). By design these tools cannot include current events (yet).
