I was invited by Steve Mordue to have a chat on his new series “Steve is Artificially Intelligent”. Now, Episode One is online:
We explored how Microsoft’s Copilot strategy is reshaping the role of apps, the promise (and risks) of citizen-built agents, and what the evolving AI landscape means for consultants, partners, and customers alike.
While Steve approaches the topic with strong optimism, I offered a more sceptical perspective. Especially when it comes to the sustainability of current AI business models and the realities of deploying agents in real-world environments.
The discussion covers:
-
The tension between apps and AI-first user interfaces
-
OpenAI’s role in Microsoft’s AI momentum
-
Why Copilot Studio may repeat patterns seen with Canvas apps
-
How partners should rethink their value-add in the age of automation
