I’m thrilled to help announce the #Microsoft365Copilot Wave 2 Spring release today 🎉. Leading this effort has been a career highlight and I was delighted to speak with @tomwarren on the #design process that is setting the stage for the future of work. msft.it/6013Sy6Uh

A great read about deeply inspiring work happening in @MicrosoftTeams! Today on the Microsoft Design blog: Centering #SignLanguage in #AI and Design. microsoft.design/articles/cente…

That mindset shaped our recent redesign of the #Microsoft 365 Copilot app, and I'm eager to explore avenues for AI to empower workers from the office to the job site. Read more below! 🔗: msft.it/6177s6YeB

AI could simplify apprenticeships, offer on-the-job guidance, and meet rising demands in energy and infrastructure. But it only works if we build the right tools—co-designed, context-aware, and grounded in trust.⬇️

The #design opportunities to empower skilled labor and frontline workers with AI tools are real yet show up far less in tech convos. For everyone to thrive in this new reality, product makers must expand our thinking and co-design #AI experiences alongside essential workers. 🛠️🧵

Curious if others are noticing this professional shift, too. Let me know your thoughts on the new experience—shaped by unique #WorkTrendIndex insights. Read more in the full article below. microsoft.design/articles/desig…

As #UX professionals, we’re moving from creating interfaces to orchestrating coherence across complex, nondeterministic systems. It’s about adaptive computing that understands human intent—a future where design helps technology respond to us, not the other way around ⬇️

Excited to share insights from my latest #MicrosoftDesign blog! We took a deeper look at the new #Microsoft365Copilot app, revealing not just a refreshed UX, but how design is shifting from making things to making sense of them. Guiding, not just building 🧵

Im incredibly proud of the hard work and dedication that went into building this experience from design, engineering, and beyond. I would love to know what you think ⬇️

The new #Microsoft365Copilot app is now GA 🎉—a product shaped by clarity, iteration, & care. It’s one thing to talk about human-centered AI. It’s another to design an experience that actually meets people where they are. Read more ⬇️ techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/microsoft…

More collaboration. More relevant search results. More advanced image generation. It's all in Microsoft 365 Copilot's big spring update. Learn more: msft.it/6014SHvb6

Coinciding with the release is @Microsoft’s 5th annual Work Trend Index report (microsoft.com/en-us/worklab/…), which highlights the evolving productivity needs of businesses worldwide. We designed with these shifting needs in mind and we continuously iterate based on ongoing feedback.

At India UX Day 2025, the focus was clear: AI is changing everything—and #UX is at the center of it. From real-time adaptive design to inclusive AI systems, Microsoft leaders shared how design is shaping what comes next. microsoft.design/articles/desig…

Because some paradigms were ahead of their time... here's to designing the next 50 years with you. #DesigningPossibility #Microsoft50

Our journey in building #Copilot has laid the groundwork for a design system built for the future—one that will transform the role of AI and reshape the very notion of a #designsystem. msft.it/6003WnJVv

There’s a new editorial hub for #design at #Microsoft 🎉 microsoft.design Make sure to check it out and let us know what you think ⬇️

Diving deep into #AI has been a game-changer for @designjon. From Microsoft to his startup DappleDoc, he's sharing how AI is transforming #design and business. msft.it/6004manB2

This #WorldMentalHealthDay I’m excited to share more about my son Judah and I’s new book 📖 “Max & The Purple Anxiety Monster” and our experience co-creating illustrations for it with #AI. msft.it/6003YV4Uc

My next fireside is here with none other than @johnmaeda. We got to talk about all things AI, and what product makers and designers can expect to do next in this paradigm shift. To any designers, I would love to know your thoughts on the topic ⬇️. msft.it/6006Y3BIk

13-year-old author Judah Friedman recently published his debut children’s book, “Max & the Purple Anxiety Monster,” to comfort and uplift children who are dealing with anxiety. His dad, Jon Friedman, corporate VP of Design at Microsoft, blended technology with artistry by creating the book’s illustrations through collaboration with AI. maxandpurple.com
