According to Insider , Julia Liuson - Vice President of Developer Division, the department in charge of 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 is core to every role and every level.” Liuson also directs managers that AI “should be part of the overall assessment of an individual’s performance and impact.”
Microsoft’s performance requirements can vary from team to team, and some are considering including a more formal criteria for using internal AI tools in performance reviews for the coming fiscal year.
The changes are said to be aimed at addressing the slow adoption of Copilot internally. Microsoft wants to make AI chatbots more widely available, and wants product developers to have a better understanding of the tools.
GitHub Copilot faces competition from other AI programming services like Cursor. Microsoft allows employees to use some external AI tools as long as they meet certain security requirements. For example, employees are currently allowed to use Replit.
A recent report from Barclays cites data showing that Cursor recently surpassed GitHub Copilot in code editors — a key segment of the developer market.
