I don’t comprehend why Teams can’t develop the AI feature that users need: 1.) Summarize all the threads and channels I’m a part of and highlight the crucial messages or those that require immediate action. 2.) Provide a mode where I’m only notified of urgent messages (such as someone blocking me, a prod issue, or urgent matters).

4th largest company. top tier devs. unlimited resources.
still couldn't ship what Claude did in the last few weeks.

Claude for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word are now generally available, and Claude for Outlook is in public beta. As Claude moves between your Microsoft apps, it carries the full context of your conversation.

@rickyvhuyssteen @KhuselaS This is the playbook. Don’t take responsibility or action for anything. It’s easier to raise your voice against someone actually wanting to do something
English

I see @KhuselaS has been very quiet about the City Of Johannesburgs financial affairs… she has a lot to say about Helen Zilles Campaign to be mayor, but very little to say about the dire financial situation that the city finds itself in.

@BenjaminDEKR I think similar: yes to hosting but Grok will become more important in-house at SpaceX, better at working with X, and less as a consumer LLM.

@marcel__za Isn't this just.... competition? There will always be another that works with more prestigious clients. Coming on national TV to complain about this won't win you any.
This is whining on the highest level.

In the last month, people have been using Copilot Cowork to do amazing things – from building inbox workflows to sales campaigns. And I’m excited to share three big updates to help you accomplish even more: 1) mobile on iOS and Android so you can delegate work from anywhere, 2) skills to help you reuse and scale how work is done and 3) new plugins + connectors to bring your data into the flow of work.
I’ve been testing these updates out – here’s a quick demo of how I’ve been using mobile in my daily work.

@FlowAltDelete @AndyAZ Finding 5.5 fast but not as good as Claude. Claude seems to know what I want. Gpt offers help but not in the way I prefer
English

@AndyAZ That’s a great question. I cant find any info on this.. Copilot Studio still shows Sonnet. Which I made my own M365 Copilot that runs Sonnet:

@eyes_floating @Magouster @KoketsoResane Do you understand the number of deaths being very close, when it shouldn’t? How can a country in war have only 25% more deaths than one jot in a war?
English

@Magouster @KoketsoResane You're saying a murder rate of 45/100 000 is comparable to a murder rate of 3000/100 000? Do you understand per capita? Get your own head out of your own ass.
English

@MotlalepulaMa11 @KoketsoResane Would you vote for a political party that doesn’t do nothing for its own people?
English

@KoketsoResane My morals and principles remains the same whether it is local or national. I will never vote for an immoral politician who thinks genocide is a big word.
English

@ZACarlito @KoketsoResane Those countries also had their shit in order. Not us, we have massive problems and literally need to focus on ourselves, not something that does nothing for the ppl of SA
English

@KoketsoResane When we suffered under apartheid, it was those whose “problem it wasn’t” that brought down sufficient pressure to stop that evil. It was the compassion of those whose morals made them love strangers above their own comfort.
Fuck you man. Fuck you to hell.

@dumi_ZAR @KoketsoResane How are they doing in the municipalities they run? That’s your answer.
Grow up
English

@KoketsoResane You’re either white, stupid or both. You think a political party that supports the genocide in Gaza would have policies that benefit the poorest of the poor??
English

@KoketsoResane I agree with you but everyone else doesn’t! We are not in a position to support other countries over our own! Fix our shit, then we can worry about others

@MKFraudInsights @VusiThembekwayo Great thread. Imagine the feeling of powerlessness low this. These threats were so unthreatening that it made these events even more worrisome

In Midrand, Tshepo Madula was earning just over R3.3 million a year as Director of Procurement for one of South Africa’s largest FMCGs, responsible for sourcing raw materials and packaging for one of the country’s top-selling beer brands, and by the time a R248m supplier contract was awarded across three sites, the decision had already moved beyond commercial evaluation into a part of his life no governance framework was built to defend.
A Case Study.

@luvkhum @dailymaverick What about the local companies? There are many businesses looking to use the cloud and having data centres in South Africa allows them to remain compliant.

@smccnn @dailymaverick South Africans must stay in the dark for American Israeli data centres

@FlowAltDelete I tried and it created a new md file at the root of the cowork directory, but it doesn’t call the md file at start up. I’ll need to tinker
English

@smccnn 👀 yea, this could definitely be a skill..
Gonna test that for sure.

Copilot Cowork SURVIVAL TIP.
Tell Copilot Cowork to create a requirements.md file at the start of your session.
Not later.
At the start.
Have it track:
decisions,
requirements,
open items,
conversation context,
audit notes,
files created.
Then if the session glitches or you need a fresh chat, open the Output folder, copy the OneDrive link, paste it into the new session, and tell Cowork:
Use the files from our previous session.
This has saved me more than once.
Cowork loves creating files.
Make it create the one that keeps your work alive.

@luvkhum @dailymaverick Also in datacentres. Today there are way more users of these services than there were 20 years ago. Plus, we have a local need for datacentres to support new services or businesses.

@smccnn @dailymaverick Were was Facebook and gmail storing data twenty years ago!?!
English

@luvkhum @dailymaverick Where do you think your Gmail is stored? Your Facebook? Your delivery apps? They all rely on data centres to host their servers to serve consumers

@TheLaikYobaz Water security is very important. No problem at all with countries or regions securing it for their citizens.
