Microsoft is making advancements in its Azure AI Foundry service by preparing to host Elon Musk's Grok AI model. Conversations with xAI suggest that Grok could be integrated into Microsoft’s offerings, allowing developers access to this AI model within their applications. This step could intensify internal tensions with existing partner OpenAI, as Microsoft has been actively including various AI models from competing labs. CEO Satya Nadella is leading this initiative, aiming to position Microsoft as a primary provider for emerging AI technologies.
"Microsoft has been in discussions with xAI to host the Grok AI model and make it available to customers and Microsoft's own product teams through the Azure cloud service."
"If the deal proceeds, Grok will be available on Azure AI Foundry, allowing developers to use it within their apps and for Microsoft to integrate it into its own services."
