Need Help Evaluating Your Employees? Microsoft Has an AI Tool for That

Microsoft remains dead set on ramming AI into every corner of its services, from "AI-powered search to help you find information faster at work" to a new "Create" experience for business that "unlocks design skills for everyone." So far, that's sticking to the AI-is-great PR rule book. But, as research analyst Josh Bersin noted in a blog post, one part of the new toolset is of particular interest to company managers and HR departments: the new "skills" infrastructure. Bersin suggests this has the "potential to radically change the HR Tech landscape." The new tool, which includes a "skills-inference agent" and a "skills management agent," will allow a company to "identify and monitor the skills of all their employees," Bersin explains. If that sounds creepy, then hold your horses: things get more interesting. Essentially, if your company licenses Microsoft's Copilot AI system and the business productivity software suite Microsoft 365, the AI system will automatically "discover" the different skills of each of your workers. It even serves them up neatly summarized in a Skills Agent tool which lets you "view and manage the skills in your team," he says. You can opt to use Microsoft's predefined choices for sets of skills, or map in your own terminology depending on your company needs.

Put AI to work across use cases like content creation, market research, sales management, DevOps, IT, HR, and more Are you drowning in a sea of SaaS apps, constantly switching screens and struggling to keep everything updated? You're not alone, the average number of SaaS solutions used by companies is 112. But what if you could bring all those tools -- and the power of AI -- into one central hub? Enter the Slack Marketplace. The Slack Marketplace is where partners and developers are sharing solutions they've built that bring all these apps into the flow of work, where employees are already spending their time, in Slack. And these aren't just typical apps - Slack's innovative partners are building that bring the productivity of generative AI into users' work streams. These AI apps can help users surface information, provide recommendations, generate helpful summaries, and more, all in the same conversational interface you are already using to get work done. Slack's partners and developers understand how important it is to bring people, apps, and data into one work operating system, giving each employee their own command center and time back in their day. That's why there are on the Slack Marketplace that put AI to work for use cases from drafting content, surfacing market research, managing sales, running DevOps, IT, HR, and beyond. Every one of these AI apps makes Slack more useful, drives adoption, streamlines the flow of work, and inspires a new use case.

This Khan Academy AI tool helps students combat writer's block - here's how

Khanmigo Writing Coach uses gen AI to teach students how to write - not write for them. One of generative AI's most impressive capabilities is composing text that reads well, follows proper structure, and adheres to language and punctuation rules. Khan Academy found a way to harness these capabilities to help students improve their writing -- and not by generating first drafts for them. On Monday, Khan Academy announced it is piloting Khanmigo Writing Coach, an AI tool that guides students through writing their first drafts to promote learning and combat writer's block. Also: How ChatGPT (and other AI chatbots) can help you write an essay The Writing Coach helps students through the entire writing process by breaking it down into four different stages: understanding, outlining, drafting, and revising. To help students understand the assignment, Khanmigo first breaks down the task and helps them develop a plan for tackling it. The AI tool then walks students through the outlining process by teaching them the components of an essay, including how to develop a strong thesis, topic sentences, supporting evidence, and more. For the drafting process, it does not generate text for the student; rather, it guides and motivates them as they attempt to write it. Lastly, the revision process offers learners personalized feedback. Throughout the entire experience, Khanmigo can also answer any questions the learner types into the chat, accepting and outputting conversational prompts. The process breakdown shows that the Writing Coach never directly generates text for the assignment. Khan Academy purposefully designed Khanmigo this way, as the company explains that the tool's purpose isn't to produce perfect text but rather to teach students to become writers. Also: 5 ways AI can help you study- for free "Unlike other AI writing tools, Writing Coach isn't an evaluative tool or a productivity tool with the purpose of producing better writing - it's an AI-enabled instructional tool with the purpose of producing better writers," said Sarah Robertson, Senior Product Manager at Khan Academy. Teachers can also benefit from the tool. In the fall, Khanmigo Writing Coach will have features such as detailed reporting, which will give teachers summaries of class and student-level feedback, and academic integrity monitoring, which will alert teachers of potential plagiarism. If you are a teacher or parent interested in learning more about Khanmigo, you can visit the Khanmigo site for more information regarding pricing and availability.
