Microsoft to unveil new AI models and Windows improvements at Build
TL;DR
Microsoft is heading to San Francisco this week in a bid to win back developers at its Build conference. I've been attending Build since the days when Microsoft called it the Professional Developers Conference, and I can't remember a more pivotal moment. As Microsoft continues to reshuffle its entire business around AI, it's moving Build into a smaller, more intimate venue. Trust in Windows and GitHub is at an all-time low, and this is Microsoft's chance to reconnect with developers and outline the future.
Nauti's Take
Opportunity: Microsoft is bundling new AI models, its own reasoning model and a Copilot super app, giving anyone building in the Windows or GitHub ecosystem powerful new pieces in one place. The catch: stage announcements are not shipped products, and Microsoft only wins back shaky trust with real quality.
Developers should watch the demos but test the roadmap promises in practice before betting on them.
