Whereas Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella says he likes podcasts, he may not truly be listening to them anymore.
That tidbit comes in direction of the top of an extended Bloomberg profile of Nadella, with a concentrate on Microsoft’s AI technique and its difficult relationship with OpenAI. As an example how a lot he makes use of the corporate’s Copilot AI assistant in his each day life, Nadella stated that as an alternative of listening to podcasts, he now uploads the transcripts to Copilot, then talks to Copilot concerning the content material throughout his drive to the workplace.
As well as, Nadella — who jokingly described his job as “e-mail typist” — stated he depends on no less than 10 customized brokers developed in Copilot Studio to summarize emails and messages, put together for conferences, and carry out different duties across the workplace.
AI already appears to be reworking Microsoft in additional substantial methods, with programers reportedly the toughest hit within the firm’s current layoffs, shortly after Nadella declared that 30% of the corporate’s code was written by AI.
