Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has publicly rebuked one of his own corporate vice presidents over a leaked strategy memo that openly stated the goal of making users “addicted” to Scout, the company’s newly announced AI assistant. In a message sent to roughly 50 of Microsoft’s top software engineers, Nadella called the framing “nonsense” and suggested whoever wrote and leaked the document “may want to go work elsewhere.”
The internal note, first reported by The Information and obtained by 404 Media, was authored by Omar Shahine, the corporate vice president leading the Scout team.
