While Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella says he likes podcasts, he may not really be listening to them anymore.
That tidbit comes in direction of the tip of an extended Bloomberg profile of Nadella, with a give attention to Microsoft’s AI technique and its difficult relationship with OpenAI. To illustrate how a lot he makes use of the corporate’s Copilot AI assistant in his day by 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.
In addition, Nadella — who jokingly described his job as “electronic 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 remodeling 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.
