Odaily Planet Daily News Since Microsoft invested more than $10 billion in OpenAI in exchange for the right to reuse the startup's AI models, Microsoft has trained a new internal AI model for the first time, which is large enough to compete with the most advanced models of Google, Anthropic and OpenAI itself. It is reported that this new model, which is called "MAI-1" internally, is led by Mustafa Suleyman, the former head of Google AI and most recently the CEO of AI startup Inflection. Microsoft hired most of the startup's employees in March this year and purchased its intellectual property for $650 million. However, according to two employees familiar with the matter, this product is separate from the Pi series previously released by Inflection. People familiar with the matter said that MAI-1 will be much larger than any smaller open source model Microsoft has trained before, which means it will require more computing power and training data, and therefore will be more expensive.
