At Microsoft Build 2025, Microsoft focused on agentic AI, making it central to their developer strategy. CEO Satya Nadella introduced the “agentic web,” where AI takes a bigger role in software creation. Key updates included evolving GitHub Copilot into a programming partner, new features for managing AI agents, and giving them identities and security controls. Microsoft also backed open standards like Agent2Agent and MCP. The event highlighted how AI will reshape developer roles, adoption challenges, and productivity gains, while noting the shift is still early. Success depends on real-world use, openness, and developer trust.
