Meet Moshik Shir - Principal Program Manager for Startups and Software Development at Microsoft, working across EMEA with 25+ years in tech, covering everything from VoIP pioneers to Azure resilience engineering, in a conversation about AI-Assisted Enterprise Coding.

Highlights from the conversation:

Context is everything - developers who are good at giving AI detailed, specific information become huge fans of AI coding. Those who give vague prompts end up thinking AI sucks. Context management is a skill you can learn and it makes all the difference.

AI agents talking to other AI agents - we're moving from humans using AI to AI agents working together. One agent books your flight while another handles your hotel. This will completely change how companies handle support and knowledge management.

Microsoft's winning combo - GitHub Copilot for coding + Microsoft Research (like Perplexity) for starting new projects + Teams Copilot for meeting notes. Using the research tool with Copilot together is especially powerful when kicking off new work.

Learn two things, not just one - being super specialized in one area is risky now. Build skills in two domains (like tech + business, or frontend + AI) so you can adapt when AI changes your job.

Copilot is everywhere at Microsoft - it works in Excel, Teams, Azure, VS Code - basically everything. People use it for finding old files, prepping for customer meetings, and getting meeting summaries without needing an assistant.

Enjoy!
