I think MSFT really needs some validated user stories. How many users want to, "Improve my writing," "Create an image," "Understand what is changed" (e.g. recent edits), or "Visualize my data."?

Those are the four use cases featured by the Microsoft 365 Copilot App (https://m365.cloud.microsoft/).

Conversely, I bet there are a lot of people who want AI to improve things they are already doing repeatedly. For example, I click the same button in Epic every day because Epic can't remove a tab. Maybe Copilot could learn that I do this and just...do it for me? Like, Copilot could watch my daily habits and offer automation for recurring things.

We're working on it at https://github.com/openadaptai/openadapt.

Right, sure, there is an initial pain of building domain knowledge. But that one year of knowledge building, distribution, early customers, then dominates who has control over the cap table for a decade. Why not just do this work yourself? Its some weird myth that someone capable of being a technical leader cannot also flesh out the distribution

Especially with the existence of AI, it really makes no sense and is some weird hierarchical system built by business people

Can you recommend any resources for learning how to do this work yourself?

> While the LLMs get to blast through all the fun, easy work at lightning speed, we are then left with all the thankless tasks: testing to ensure existing functionality isn’t broken, clearing out duplicated code, writing documentation, handling deployment and infrastructure, etc.

I’ve found LLMs just as useful for the "thankless" layers (e.g. tests, docs, deployment).

The real failure mode is letting AI flood the repo with half-baked abstractions without a playbook. It's helpful to have the model review the existing code and plan out the approach before writing any new code.

The leverage may be in using LLMs more systematically across the lifecycle, including the grunt work the author says remains human-only.
