The three main AI innovation ingredients are: talent, data, and compute. Microsoft has all three, but of them all, at the world-class level, top talent is the most scarce. Microsoft has amazing talent in MSR but it is spread into multiple areas and has different agendas. OpenAI talent is probably near/on par with MSR talent, but has focus and experience and a dream team dedicated to world-class generative AI. They will be collaborating with MSR researchers too, and leveraging the immense compute and data resources at Microsoft.

But why can't it be both? I mean, integrate the AI into Cortana and Bing so as to gain the maximum benefit from their investment.

What do you think is so hard about embedding AI generated images in a webpage or are you talking about something else?

Where are you hosting GPU for this?

It's over 1 trillion!!!!

How is Google behind OpenAI? Chinchilla has simmilar performance as GPT3 yet is much cheaper to run since it has less than half the parameters.

I have a bunch of word documents (more or less with the same format). What tool/service would you recommend to make it learn from all those documents so that I can ask it questions about the content?

microsoft te already beating google. Their income streams are more diversified. It has a huge stable client base (and has had so for 30 years)

Msft won't beat google at search. But then that's googles only "one trick pony." Google isn't beating Microsoft in business hardware, business software. Os etc etc etc!

If Google search gets displaced tomorrow the company loses all it's interest. If big gets replaced Microsoft will keep selling windows, SQL server, office etc etc etc.

Exactly, it has so many applications. One feature would be teams meeting summaries.

Everyone is currently behind openAI even Google who likely considers this existential risk. If you were Google/MS would you rather buy and become the leader and their talent or let the competitor buy them, thinking you can build something from behind to overtake the leader. The latter is possible but riskier than the first

It's about both I would guess.

What? Amazon made 9 billion from Q42021 to Q32022

That is stupid. It's a new thing. Thats why it is worth so much money. It's an actual new technology that does what all the other silicon Valley bullshiters say they want to do. Innovate and break the norm.

It will definitely help Cortana, but it will also help Bing.

Core logic this world runs on will no longer be tribal knowledge. Just like how the internet reduced the value of information down to nothing... This will reduce the value of "doing" with said information.

I'm not sure what this will do to humans long-term, I worry though as we're now able to create little experts(models) for nearly anything if given enough information.

Na it is about GitHub my dudes...

Hmm… you’re making a lot of wishful thinking assumptions about how ChatGPT works, and what’s required to get to the stage you’re referring to.

I’m going to go out on a limb here and assert that your background is not in deep learning.

I've been dreaming about this kind of use case for over two years. Can't compete with biggies :((

Bro mega corporations aren't anime characters measured by market cap

Except this time with dragons or spaceships, or in the past or in the future

True and that's probably the reason. But still, they have a ML/AI division. Why not have them just train Megatron to convergence and leapfrog GPT3? I'll never understand how these companies make decisions honestly.

From my experience with it's incredible coding abilities, i expect ChatGPT to explode in this area first and foremost

You mean real life?
