According to Insider , Julia Liuson, Vice President of the Developer Division responsible for developer tools like GitHub Copilot, recently sent an email instructing managers to evaluate employee performance based on the use of internal AI tools.

“AI is now a fundamental part of how we work. Like collaboration, data-driven thinking, and effective communication, using AI is no longer optional – it’s core to every role and every level.” Liuson also directed managers that AI “should be part of overall assessments of an individual’s performance and impact.”

Microsoft's performance requirements can vary between teams. Some are considering incorporating a more formal criterion for using internal AI tools into their performance evaluations for the upcoming fiscal year.

These changes are reportedly aimed at addressing the stagnation in Copilot's internal adoption. Microsoft wants AI chatbots to be more widely used and also hopes that product developers will have a better understanding of the tools.

GitHub Copilot is facing competition from other AI programming services like Cursor. Microsoft allows employees to use certain external AI tools as long as they meet certain security requirements. For example, employees are now allowed to use Replit.

A recent report from Barclays cites data showing that Cursor has recently overtaken GitHub Copilot in the code editor market – a key segment of the developer market.
