Microsoft is giving Windows a demotion, and leaning into the cloud. "Microsoft has been my work, my team, and my purpose for 21 years," Myerson wrote in a LinkedIn blog post. So far, the company's investment in the cloud, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things has paid off. The changes don't mean that Microsoft is totally giving up on Windows, DiDio said. "They're de-emphasizing Windows," she said, in order to become a stronger "player in cloud and artificial intelligence, because that's where the money is."
