Microsoft is moving GitHub into its CoreAI team, following the resignation of GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke today. After nearly four years as CEO, Dohmke is leaving GitHub to \u201cbecome a startup founder again,\u201d and pursue opportunities outside of Microsoft and GitHub.<\/p>\n

GitHub has operated as a separate company ever since Microsoft acquired it<\/a> in 2018 for $7.5 billion, but Dohmke\u2019s departure is part of a big shakeup to the way GitHub operates. Microsoft isn\u2019t replacing Dohmke\u2019s CEO position, and GitHub will now be fully part of Microsoft instead of being run as a separate entity. <\/p>\n

\u201cGitHub and its leadership team will continue its mission as part of Microsoft\u2019s CoreAI organization, with more details shared soon,\u201d says Dohmke in a memo<\/a> to GitHub employees today. \u201cI\u2019ll be staying through the end of 2025 to help guide the transition and am leaving with a deep sense of pride in everything we\u2019ve built as a remote-first organization spread around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Microsoft\u2019s CoreAI team is a new engineering group led by former Meta executive Jay Parikh. It includes Microsoft\u2019s platform and tools division and Dev Div teams, with a focus on building an AI platform and tools for both Microsoft and its customers. Parikh described his vision of an AI agent factory in an interview with <\/a>Notepad<\/a> <\/em>earlier this year, and how he is convincing the developer division of Microsoft to adopt AI.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cJust like how Bill [Gates] had this idea of Microsoft being a bunch of software developers building a bunch of software, I want our platform, for any enterprise or any organization, to be able to be the thing they turn into their own agent factory,\u201d said Parikh.<\/p>\n

Dohmke only just appeared on Decoder <\/em>last week<\/a>, discussing Copilot, vibe coding, and what\u2019s next for AI. Dohmke was thinking a lot about the competition and GitHub\u2019s role in the future of software development, and now he\u2019s about to leave to potentially create some more competition for Microsoft\u2019s AI efforts.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
