Overview

  • Microsoft has brought GPT-5 to Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Nadella says it has become part of his daily workflow by adding a “new layer of intelligence” across his apps.
  • Nadella’s prompts include anticipating what a counterpart will raise in the next meeting and preparing a briefing from a selected email based on past team discussions.
  • He also uses Copilot to draft project updates from emails, chats, and meetings, covering KPIs versus targets, wins and losses, risks, competitive moves, and likely tough questions.
  • For launch readiness, he asks Copilot to check engineering progress, pilot results, and risks, and to provide a probability of being on track; a time-audit prompt buckets his calendar and email into projects with percentages.
  • The post drew substantial attention, reported at about 7 million views by The Indian Express, as Fortune placed his examples within a broader pattern of CEOs using AI and highlighted prompting best practices from Anthropic.
