    A few weeks ago, we were honored to participate in #INMAWorldCongress in London, UK in an amazing location near famous the Tower of London, with beautiful spring weather as a bonus. The MSN team, including Nim Patel, Paolo Andreotti, Johannes Dommnich, David Schwartz and many others, did exceptional work setting up an impressive booth, signing up new publishers, and passionately advocating for our platform. Their dedication deserves special recognition for driving meaningful conversations and fostering strong relationships, and Nikhil Kolar presented on "Evolving in the age of AI," prompting great discussion about how technology can help the industry . I personally had the privilege of connecting with industry leaders, publishers, and innovators and want to briefly share some takeaways: AI Adoption in Publishing: Publishers worldwide are overcoming initial apprehensions towards AI. At MSN, we collaborate closely with Microsoft’s Democracy Forward team to bring AI-powered options to our newsroom, enhancing competitiveness, and delivering valuable content. Content Bundling: Consumer preferences are evolving rapidly. MSN has embraced the “Great Bundling” approach, offering video content, engaging galleries, and casual games, diversifying content offerings. Subscription-based Models: With advertising revenue challenges, publishers are turning to subscription-based models. On MSN, we are helping drive subscriptions for the publishers. Audio and Podcasts: Audio content, including podcasts, is a significant trend. We're exploring innovative ways to engage our audience through this medium, leveraging Microsoft technology like #Azurevoice. Reflecting on our journey, publishers’ sentiments have transformed from being concerned about risks to businesses a year ago, to being curious and excited to take advantage of opportunities created by the AI wave. Thanks again to our incredible team and partners – I hope you’ll share your learnings or comment if I missed something, and let’s continue shaping the future of media together! 🚀 #INMAWorldCongress #startpartner #NewsMedia #MSN

    Our weather team already has built the most accurate tool for predicting the weather, but their latest announcement can help you understand how climate change and extreme weather impact your specific area. The new “Weather Trends” page uses 70 years of climate data for a specific location – not just a region or state – to create intuitive visuals and show trends. By using Microsoft’s AI intelligence coupled with this climate history data, you can see exactly how the weather has changed in your area over time. It’s another powerful way to get usable information about the weather, not just the forecast (although we have that too). Take a look at the blog for more information: https://lnkd.in/gVMwXmvS.

    “What can I actually do with it?” is a question people often ask about AI, but I think that question may start to answer itself (without even having to plug it into Bing😉). At Microsoft, we pride ourselves on building things to empower people, and the launch of Copilot Pro makes this truer than ever. With access to the latest models and lots of new use cases, Copilot Pro means creativity AND productivity!   Creativity - there are lots of entertaining examples of people using AI tools like Copilot to supercharge their creativity across text and images. I use these tools often to assist with my own brainstorming as well as making stories or communications clearer. At a recent event for content partners, we even displayed artwork (sharing an example in this post) and topical quotes generated with the assistance of AI. Productivity - expanding access to Copilot for individual users and businesses to means new forms of productivity too. This includes some you probably expect, like integrations into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote across PC, Mac and iPad. Probably most unique though is the potential of Copilot GPT Builder, which gives users the ability to create a customized Copilot tailored to their unique needs or use case. Soon, rather than using the same tools as everyone else, you’ll have the ability to create something uniquely relevant to you or your business. With the launch of Copilot Pro, Microsoft is empowering individuals and businesses with powerful features across nearly all the products and services we offer. As we do our exciting work to help inform, entertain, and inspire people around the world, it’s thrilling to be part of what looks more and more like a revolution.

Every time you follow a topic, comment, or even give an article a thumbs up or down, your feed gets better. It’s AI – with YOU in control🤖!   Microsoft is using AI to empower people to achieve more, and it's thrilling to witness these advancements in action. I'm look forward to sharing more ways we're bringing AI to life soon - stay tuned for updates! 🚀 #MicrosoftAI #Windows10 #Windows11 #Copilot #MicrosoftStart
