Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens for the delivery of clues on the way! CTOnews.com, July 4 (Xinhua)-- Gurdeep Pall, senior vice president of Microsoft, plans to retire from the company in September, according to The Information. The news has been confirmed by a Microsoft spokesman, calling it his "planned retirement".

Gurdeep Pall is a veteran of Microsoft and has worked at Microsoft for 33 years since he joined the company in 1990. He has been involved in the development and promotion of Microsoft's important products, such as Windows, Skype and Bing, and often attends important product conferences at Microsoft.

Gurdeep Pall originally joined Microsoft as a software engineer and was responsible for integrating TCP / IP, the basic software protocol of the Internet, into Windows. Since 2005, he has been in charge of product and R & D departments, developing and managing Skype, Teams, Microsoft Voice, Mobile search and Bing Maps.

Since 2016, Gurdeep Pall has been working on translating Microsoft's research results into products of the Industrial Metasmos division. This department aims to help customers build software to automate control systems in areas such as power plants, factory robots and transportation networks. He also participated in Microsoft's Airsim project launched in July 2022, a drone simulation software product. However, CTOnews.com noted that the development of the project is not clear because of Microsoft's layoffs and cost cuts.

Gurdeep Pall's retirement shows that Microsoft, under the leadership of Kevin Scott, chief technology officer and executive vice president of artificial intelligence, has turned its attention to generative artificial intelligence.
