In 2024 we learned a lot about how AI is impacting work. People report that they're saving 30 minutes a day using AI (aka.ms/nfw2024), and randomized controlled trials reveal they’re creating 10% more documents, reading 11% fewer e-mails, and spending 4% less time on e-mail (aka.ms/productivity...).

Jaime Teevan joined Microsoft before it was cool again. Once she had completed her doctorate in artificial intelligence at MIT, Teevan had many career options, but was drawn to Microsoft’s respected, somewhat ivory-tower-ish research division. 🔗 www.wired.com/story/at-age...

Microsoft at 50: An AI Giant. A Kinder Culture. And Still Hellbent on Domination
When Satya Nadella took over as CEO, the company was lumbering and uncool. He cleaned up a toxic culture, crafted the deal of the decade, and put Microsoft back on top.

Despite vacation and rest, I’m entering 2024 more broken than I realized. I think 2023 was hard for me. It’s weirdly hard when your work becomes mainstream. Things that used to be challenging suddenly were easy, and the challenge became how to focus absent constraints. (a thread)

It was obvious that GPT4 was going to change how we work - from the first day I got access I knew I wouldn't want to work without it. The trick was just going to be integrating it into people's workflows, with people's personal content, in a trustworthy and natural way. #MSIgnite

"I'm not interested in when [AI] works," says chief scientist Teevan. "I'm like, 'Show me when it doesn't work.' And Satya is very much in that .. mindset: 'Let's find the cases where it breaks and how we're learning from that.'" fastcompany.com/90931084/satya-nade…
