Microsoft Build 2026 conference kicks off in San Francisco on June 2nd with new AI models, reasoning model, and Windows developer improvements expected

3 Key Points

  1. Microsoft's annual Build developer conference is starting today in San Francisco at Fort Mason with CEO Satya Nadella delivering a keynote at 12:30PM ET / 9:30AM PT. The event is being streamed for free online, and Microsoft is moving Build to a smaller, more intimate venue after previously holding it in Seattle.

  2. Microsoft is expected to announce new AI models in Windows, a new reasoning model from Microsoft AI, and a Copilot "super app." The company will also unveil a new Windows 11 developer-optimized experience with a distraction-free environment and pre-installed apps, tools, and scripts.

  3. The conference timing reflects Microsoft's broader business restructuring around AI and represents an effort to rebuild developer trust in Windows and GitHub, which sources indicate is at an all-time low.
