Podcast explores using Microsoft Copilot to optimize life

In the latest episode of the 'Teach Me, Senpai' podcast, Josh Aquino from Microsoft Philippines discusses how the AI tool Copilot can enhance work, health, and creativity. A study shows 86% of Filipino knowledge workers use AI at work, though training remains limited. The episode highlights practical ways to 'min-max' life using Copilot.

Rappler has released episode 17 of its podcast 'Teach Me, Senpai', titled 'Min-maxing’ life using Copilot with Microsoft’s Josh Aquino'. This is sponsored content from Microsoft Philippines, produced by BrandRap, with no involvement from Rappler's news team.

As a digitally-savvy society, Filipinos have readily embraced AI in daily tasks, from improving work to learning. A Microsoft and LinkedIn study reveals that 86% of Filipino knowledge workers use AI at work—higher than the global average of 75% and regional average of 83%. However, only 30% are likely to receive training, compared to 40% globally and 36% regionally.

The episode shifts focus from why to use AI to how to leverage it effectively. It features Josh Aquino, head of communications at Microsoft Philippines, sharing use-case scenarios. He explains blending personal creativity with AI technical knowledge, especially prompt engineering.

For instance, users can create source buckets of information to generate podcasts for audio learners, storybooks for kids, or recordings of positive affirmations for meditation—all via Copilot Labs. 'We say, build it around what your strength is. Like for me, as a communicator, how can this help me elevate my style? How can it help me expand my expertise, my domain understanding? How can it give me new formats?' Josh shared.

From smarter emails and campaign plans to personalized learning, wellness routines, and creative brainstorming, Copilot acts as a co-pilot in life's domains. The full episode airs on January 25 at 7 pm. 'Don’t just use AI – master it,' the podcast urges.
