Microsoft AI Copilot


Microsoft showed a 36 minutes video on their new toys: AI to all productivity tools.

Writing is one of the most powerful skills one can have. Now, even if you don’t have it you still have great help: Microsoft AI Copilot and other similar tools.

What it means for businesses:
1. Increased productivity by a high margin ???? (especially for writing emails, minutes, making presentations, code writing, and code review, etc)
2. Business Chat is the real winner of this demo. Using the Microsoft Graph to collect all the internal knowledge to keep you up to date, write responses, prepare presentations, and generally act like a real Copilot. Of course, everyone will prefer to use a mediocre suite of products that work instead of non-interoperable stand-alone apps. (Hint! The reason Slack really lost on Teams). Maybe Google will have a shoot at this, but I doubt it.
3. Much fewer people are needed (ie. including additional layoffs and freeze bans)
4. Individual white collars contractors or one-person companies will grow their revenue
5. With time these solutions will become even more effective

Go watch the presentation. It’s a must! LINK

However, I’m surprised with their approach to IPOs having in mind China’s government actions to de-list and de-risk its main companies from the NYSE. LINK That being said, let’s see what makes Shein so (...)
