The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

Kind of a huge milestone for us.

The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

And I think we are both fortunate and grateful that Windows has had the role that it has to serve, I think, the broad base of customers across the board.

So something that we are deeply grateful for and we think about all the time.

The Neuron: AI Explained

To answer your question, really, I think there has been several phases of the evolution of Windows.

The Neuron: AI Explained

When I think about

The Neuron: AI Explained

Like our heritage in terms of the first transformations we were making with the graphical user interface at the time, there was a lot of innovation, early rough edges that we were learning, iterating and refining on, both with what the user experience would look like and also what the developer platform was going to be.

And so I feel like Windows as a product has certainly evolved over time, certainly with our customers, with how our customers use our devices, and certainly with where Microsoft has gone as a company in terms of its broader strategy as well.

I personally think about this in terms of the interaction layers in Windows.

So the user experience and the interaction in Windows has evolved tremendously over time for sure for us.

And so what started with a GUI construct with mouse and keyboard now is a much richer, much more multimodal experience for us with our customers.

Like we talked about Pen and Ink are first-class citizens.

Voice and vision will be a huge construct.

The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

Things like vision will become possible really because AI is an intrinsic part of how the device operates.

The Neuron: AI Explained

So you can think about Windows' evolution in that context.

The Neuron: AI Explained

How do you interact with our computers?

The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

How do we interface with our devices?

The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

How do those continue to become more natural, more seamless, more present in our lives?

The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

The other big dimension for us is the richness of the platform of Windows in terms of how it serves its customers.

The Neuron: AI Explained
The Future of Windows: AI-Native Computing with Pavan Davuluri

At the time, we started with a relatively finite set of apps and capabilities on Windows today.

And today, more broadly, Windows serves a variety of segments.
