## Overview

A short clip from the Dynamics Corner podcast about using AI to solve real problems for customers and other people, rather than feeling pressure to use every new capability. The speakers say the rate of change is so fast that adoption is sometimes difficult.

One speaker describes feeling overwhelmed when Copilot instructions, skills and agents arrived. Their approach was to create something very simple and build from there. They now create prompts regularly.

## Key points

- Apply AI to solve problems for customers and other people, not because of pressure to use it.
- The rate of change is so fast that many people find it hard to adopt and do not turn these features on.
- A key challenge is teaching people to use these features and how to use them.
- The new Copilot instructions, skills and agents left one speaker overwhelmed and feeling pressure to know how to create them.
- Starting with something very simple, with Copilot helping, made creating these things and prompts routine.
