Daniel Ives and the team reckon the AI revolution is in full swing, with enterprise deals accelerating across finance, government and retail. They see Azure and Office AI features driving Microsoft toward a $4 trillion market capand even $5 trillion in the next 18 months.
Over the next three years, more than 70% of its installed base should be running AI tools, and early Copilot rollouts could tack on about $25 billion by FY 26.
