Microsoft starts testing AI model that could escalate competition with OpenAI
Microsoft’s MAI-1-preview Model is the Software Company’s First Model Trained Internally From Start to Finish
Microsoft has largely relied on OpenAI’s artificial intelligence models to power AI features in its key products. It’s trying to lessen that dependence. The software company said Thursday that it’s begun publicly testing a homegrown AI model that could lead to enhancements to its Copilot assistant for consumers. The MAI-1-preview model is being tested on LMArena, a website where people can conduct evaluations.
