From a developer perspective, this @Microsoft BUILD is the most interesting in decades.

#MSBuild feels like a watershed moment for #AI & Microsoft. Integrating LLMs at this speed & scale into core products contrasts sharply with the approach of rivals. Indicative of MS confidence in tools, policy & safeguards to deliver "responsible AI"

Let's go, it's Monday! Looking forward to kicking off #MSBuild #AnalystDay here soon. The cast is going to be amazing! @scottgu and Rajesh Jha, @kevin_scott, leaders from GM and Wayve, and some surprise guests.
Of course @holgermu caught me mid drink. It was so great hosting our very own @scottgu and Rajesh Jha with my partner in crime @LauraRDodd with so many from the analyst community during our Analyst Day. Now on to @Microsoft #MSBuild.
Now I am looking even a little more forward to the @ScottGu and @SHanselman, will showcase European toys! #MSBuild
My officemates and I getting ready to join @LauraRDodd and these three execs for a #MSFTIgnite Analyst Day session: Scott Guthrie, Rajesh Jha and James Phillips. #MicrosoftCloud

1/ Reading over the #MSFT earnings call transcripts and there are a few great tidbits in case you missed them:
No cat-herding on my end, just these officemate dogs. Loved our time together yesterday with the analyst community. We get just as much back in insights and direction as do our customers. Back to #MSBuild.
Always great to get a chance to ask questions ahead of the official #MSBuild start tomorrow @scottgu & @jeffteper covering a wide range of topics from pandemic learnings to the future of software development
Thanks @LauraRDodd & @daveforstrom for herding cats, I mean hosting Q&A

In what has been such a fragmented market trying to address aspects of the #employeeexperience like knowledge management, learning, wellness and engagement, we're so excited to introduce #MicrosoftViva built on the best of #Microsoft365 and #MicrosoftTeams.microsoft.com/en-us/microsof…

The @Surface Pro X2 is more interesting from a tech perspective – Windows on Arm, with x64 support coming! New semi-custom SQ2 silicon! Even thinner design! – but the $549 Surface Laptop Go is going to sell like crazy. blogs.windows.com/devices/20…
Incredible visibility into the threat landscape and #cybersecurity trends in the new @Microsoft #DigitalDefenseReport blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-i…
Too true @Anderson and @bobodtech, and @panos_panay on PCs + Windows = not just essential, but making us better, anywhere. Great session. #workanywhere #hybridwork #Windows
"The idea of working from anywhere is here forever" notes @anderson in his #MSIgnite chat with @panos_panay and he's absolutely right. #Hybridcloud was the story pre-pandemic, #HybridWork will be the story post-pandemic.
Love this! Lauren Taylor's tried it: "I am an educator, but I am developing apps." #citizendevelopers #futureofwork xitter.cf/Microsoft/status/13084…
Who's tried this? You can now build #PowerApps from INSIDE @MicrosoftTeams. This is pretty much exactly like building a PowerPOINT, so if you're not a dev or have never thought about building an app, this is a great way to get started.

Microsoft doubles down on well-being & well-being technology as part of their core focus on the future of work. Microsoft deserves a lot of credit for this as the first major player to take the first steps into this increasingly key area #MSIgnite – at Richmond, London
