    Today, we published our 2026 Responsible AI Transparency Report.    One of the clearest lessons from our work is that responsible AI governance is not a destination. It’s an ongoing discipline that must evolve alongside the technology itself.    This year’s report shares how we’ve re-engineered our Responsible AI Standard to address emerging AI capabilities, strengthened our risk-based approach to governance, and continued to translate what we’re learning into the tools, practices, and processes that help operationalize responsible AI across Microsoft.  While technology continues to evolve, our AI principles remain a constant foundation. They guide how we approach new challenges, evaluate risks, and build accountability into our work. Transparency is an important part of that process. By sharing our progress, challenges, and lessons learned, our goal is to contribute to stronger AI governance across the broader ecosystem. No organization can do this alone. Advancing responsible AI will require continued collaboration, shared learning, and collective action across industry, government, academia, and civil society. I encourage you to learn more about the report here: https://lnkd.in/ekStFTyg

    Curiosity drives discovery, sparking questions about how we can better understand our world, solve challenges and find new ways forward.   In August's edition of The Monthly Tech-In, we explore how AI and technology are advancing discovery and opening new possibilities, from protecting endangered orcas and using data to help athletes unlock their potential to accelerating scientific research and empowering young entrepreneurs in Mexico.

    Just wrapped our earnings call. It was a very strong close to what was a record fiscal year for Microsoft. · Annual revenue: $331B, +18% · MS Cloud: $214B, + 27% · And Azure: $100B+, +41% And even bigger opportunity ahead! I wanted to share some more perspective on two areas of focus for us: First, we are building a new model system, where the harness, context, memory, and action space are separate from any one model family, thereby moving the frontier on the cost -to-outcome curve. And it’s not just about cost. It also has the added benefit of business continuity and resilience because every model is substitutable. This is the system we are using in our products, with great results. And we are making it available for our customers via Foundry too. You can read more about this from Mustafa Suleyman here: https://lnkd.in/gQwfAbuc Second, when it comes to Copilot, we are innovating rapidly, from chat to Cowork to Autopilots. We have also been super focused on improving the quality and performance of Copilot. Over the last three quarters, user satisfaction scores have doubled. And this quarter alone, we cut latency by 25 percent. Copilot usage intensity speaks for itself: · Number of conversations per user nearly doubled year over year · Average weekly engagement on par with Outlook and Teams · Number of customers with over 50K seats up 7X Y/Y · Customers deploying Copilot to majority of information workers, up nearly 75% QoQ And this quarter we will bring all our Copilot experiences together in one “super app” spanning both our consumer and commercial experiences. I’m greatly looking forward to this! A big Thank you to our employees and to our customers for continuing to put their trust in us. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gR3xdrUb

    Throughout this past fiscal year, customers across every industry and segment moved from AI experimentation to deploying AI for real-world business outcomes. We saw the emergence of Frontier Firms as organizations moved beyond efficiency gains to focus on human ambition and embed AI at the core of how they operate, unlocking innovation and creating new opportunities for growth. Successful customers are building an intelligence platform so their unique IQ — their knowledge, data, workflows, applications, and expertise — can continuously compound, ensuring the value of AI accrues to the customer, not the model. They also have a trust platform that is pervasive, with the ability to manage, govern, secure, and measure AI across every business process. Everything we are doing at Microsoft is focused on empowering Frontier Transformation. Copilot enables AI in the flow of human ambition, Microsoft IQ amplifies and protects an organization’s IQ, and Agent 365 is the trust platform that enables observability at every layer of the stack.  Businesses are not static, and neither are the AI systems that support them. As organizations evolve, AI systems must continuously learn and improve. Agentic workflows need to be built, observed, and tuned against the outcomes organizations seek and the ROI they demand. Microsoft’s open, model-diverse, and heterogenous platform powers that improvement loop. Looking back on FY26, I am inspired by what our customers are achieving: embedding AI into core business processes, building agentic systems, strengthening security, accelerating innovation, and creating new sources of value. I invite you to read my latest earnings blog to learn how they are bringing Frontier Transformation to life, demonstrating how intelligence, trust, and human ambition come together across industries. aka.ms/FY26Q4Blog
