Microsoft New Future of Work Report 2023
A summary of recent research from Microsoft and around the world that can help us create a new and better future of work with AI. Welcome to the 2023 Microsoft New Future of Work Report! In the past three years, there have been not one but two generational shifts in how work gets done, both of which were only possible because of decades of research and development. The first shift occurred when COVID made us realize how powerful remote and hybrid work technologies had become, as well as how much science was available to guide us in how to (and how not to) use these technologies. The second arrived this year, as it became clear that, at long last, generative AI had advanced to the point where it could be valuable to huge swaths of the work people do every day.
