Corporate Vice President, AI at Work @ Microsoft | Predicting, shaping and innovating for the future of work | Tech optimist
We often discuss the promise and benefits of #AI, but it's important to understand how this technology truly operates. When starting conversations with customers, this AI Explainer video is a go-to resource. It provides an easy-to-understand overview of generative AI, from user interaction to the basics of how AI orchestrators work with large language models (LLMs) to pull and utilize data. Watch below to gain a better understanding of how Microsoft #Copilot works behind the scenes to generate new ideas and solve problems, delivering more accurate, relevant, and personalized responses.

Our thoughts are with those affected by Hurricane Beryl, the earliest recorded Category 5 Atlantic Basin hurricane. Microsoft is working with Planet and humanitarian organizations to provide a preliminary analysis of the damage sustained by affected communities. We have run our damage assessment AI models on the satellite images we received from Planet and have maps of the affected buildings. If your organization would benefit from the underlying data in this report—please contact me. We are committed to sharing this information in support of the response efforts. It’s important to note that there is uncertainty in building footprints, and that building labeling efforts are ongoing by humanitarian organizations. Because of these differences, we trained a change detection model which looks at both the pre- and post-event imagery and assumed that all change was caused by the hurricane. The output of this model is in the red overlay on the visualizer. We then intersected the change layer with two building footprint layers: 1) an incomplete set of OpenStreetMap building footprints; and 2) a building footprint layer we generated based on just the pre-event imagery. We have used both OpenStreetMap and our own building segmentation model to estimate damage, with a range of damage between the two models. We were able to view 1937 buildings in the study area of the island of Carricou. Out of these, we estimate that at least 888 buildings were damaged: 777 buildings (40.11%) with damage fraction between 80 and 100% 102 buildings (5.27%) with damage fraction between 60% and 80% 75 buildings (3.87%) with damage fraction between 40% and 60% 70 buildings (3.61%) with damage fraction between 20% and 40% 913 buildings (47.13%) with damage fraction between 0% and 20% Our AI model bases its assessments on satellite imagery, which, while powerful, covers only a portion of the affected area and has limitations. The data and accompanying maps should serve as a preliminary guide and require on-the-ground verification for a thorough evaluation. The AI for Good Lab is committed to aiding recovery efforts and sharing valuable information that can accelerate the restoration of impacted communities. We appreciate the opportunity to partner with other organizations to help those in need. https://lnkd.in/gHEJaH4r Team: Caleb Robinson, Anthony Ortiz, Andrew Hassanali, Andrew Zolli, Amy Michaels, Kevin White , Santiago Salcido

Chief Privacy Officer and Corporate Vice President for Global Privacy, Safety, and Regulatory Affairs at Microsoft
Tomorrow, we celebrate Independence Day in the US -- a time to reflect on the principles that our nation was founded upon. Privacy is one of the foundational pillars of modern democracies, and this year the US has made significant strides in protecting this important right. Notable examples include the introduction of the Americans’ Privacy Rights Act (APRA), privacy legislation in states including Utah, Texas, Florida and Oregon, and the Protecting Americans’ Data from Foreign Adversaries Act of 2024, among others. These are crucial steps in ensuring the protection of privacy and, by extension, democracy and independence. As we celebrate our independence this week, let’s also highlight our commitment to privacy and the ongoing efforts to protect this foundational aspect of our democracy! 🗽🔐🌟

Chief Diversity Officer and Corporate Vice President of Talent Development | Microsoft
In this next episode of Inclusion Insights, I had the chance to talk with Clare Barclay, Chief Executive Officer, CVP Microsoft UK, about the importance of stepping outside our comfort zones to learn, the expansiveness of identities and cultures in the UK, and the optimism around AI’s potential for strengthening inclusion. Something in particular that resonated with me was Clare’s insight on the value of small gestures—close listening, authentic conversations—in creating a ripple effect of positive change. Clare gives great advice on how we can be open to challenging ourselves and accounting for our own biases. As we all continue our individual journeys on inclusion, I invite you to reflect on how you might expand your learning through day-to-day actions. #InclusionInsights https://lnkd.in/geJx3CYa
