Ready Or Not? AI Is B-Schools' Future

Microsoft shares rose 12.4% last week on word of the release of Copilot, a generative artificial intelligence tool to be integrated into its Office suite. That's huge news from the tech giant because it hands AI to the masses via highly familiar, everyday interfaces such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. Copilot will swiftly bring significant efficiencies and improvements to common tasks including email, analyses, business cases, presentations and performance reviews. With streamlined workflows and automated administrative functions, companies will be challenged to rethink business models, talent needs and resource usage. Very quickly, it will spur creativity, shorten work timelines and improve results.
