The other day, Marc Benioff made a comment that caught my attention: “Microsoft isn’t using Copilot themselves.” I love his passion. But it’s just not true. I use Copilot. My team uses Copilot. And pretty much all of Microsoft has been actively using Copilot for two years. That's 100s of thousands of us! A few months ago, we even compiled several stories about Copilot’s impact at Microsoft: https://lnkd.in/gZtxsxex We built an agent in Copilot Studio for Azure.com which was deployed before Agentforce was even announced. It boosted engagement 4.75x and drove a 21.5% increase in conversion rates! On our sales team, Copilot is providing a 9.4% increase in revenue per seller and a 20% increase in close rates among high users of the tool. Copilot is benefiting customer support response by helping to resolve cases, with one team closing cases 12% faster. From a marketing perspective, Copilot has helped us improve the digital customer experience and accelerated campaign creation from 12 weeks to 3 weeks. Copilot is helping our legal team respond to issues 32% faster. Our HR department has seen a 42% increase in employee self-service answer accuracy when using Copilot. And those are just a few examples! I always appreciate Marc’s takes and he is always welcome to ask me how else Microsoft is transforming with AI. Or he can ask Copilot 😊. We have a lot more coming in 2025, and I cannot wait to tell you all about it! This is such an exciting time for us, our customers, partners, and the industry. Cheers to the New Year and Happy Holidays to everyone!

The pace of AI innovation this past year has been truly remarkable. But looking back, what stands out most is the incredible speed at which this technology has diffused, turning innovation into real impact—one person, one organization, one community at a time. And throughout 2024, I had the privilege of witnessing countless examples of this around the world.

Today, we are happy to announce that our next-generation datacenter designs now use zero water for cooling. By adopting chip-level cooling technology, Microsoft is eliminating water evaporation and avoiding the need for 125 million liters of water per datacenter annually. This innovation aligns with our Datacenter Community Pledge, protecting local watersheds and reducing our Water Usage Effectiveness to near zero. Together, we’re paving the way for a more sustainable future. Learn more about our zero-water cooling technology: #MSFTAdvocate #MSSustainability
