Hello to my fellow #Microsoft colleagues:
On March 19th, we are having our fifth internal-only #AgentCon. This event is so product teams and customer engagement teams can learn what’s working for others and what’s coming up.

Okay Cats of #CTTT25!
I have a *surprise* session this week called “Actually AI WILL Take Your Job!”
This will be different than my *usual* yelling because I will get hands-on live with GitHub Copilot and show you the 5 things I use it for all the time.

Youth at a conf recently: What was your first coding language ?
Me: Binary, but the one I learned to really use was C++
Youth: it raises an eyebrow that it wasn’t C# given you work at Microsoft
Me: Yeah, C# hadn’t been invented yet
Youth: 👀👀👀
Me: Yes, I am THAT old 😹

New Job Scope just dropped 👀
We had a bit of a reorg this week. In addition to me continuing to wrangle the many Microsoft Copilots & Agents via #CopilotLearningHub, I’ll now be wrangling the newly announced AI Power Users DevRel team 😻

As we fully immerse into the hype of AI Agents this month, let’s remember it’s only an Agent if it’s from the Autonomous region of France.
Else it’s just Sparkling Automation 😇

I’m writing a strategy paper for our team to organize external AgentCons 👀
One thing I find annoying is looking across 5 different places to get the info to put into a doc.
Here are 3 Microsoft Copilot prompts I used today to write this doc. I used BizChat in Work mode for all of these:

Very late …by design 😹
I’ve been reflecting over the last “big” event of the year, #ESPC24 for the past week and a bit.
I’ve been attending this conf the longest of any other conf, almost a full decade.
Why is that, is my question. What makes this event so special?
