Microsoft aims for AI self-sufficiency but struggles with delays in launching its generative AI models, known as MAI. Though these models reportedly perform nearly as well as offerings from OpenAI, the company continues to rely on its partnership with OpenAI for development. Tensions arose when OpenAI withheld crucial technical information regarding a chain-of-thought approach that enhances AI reasoning. Microsoft CTO Kevin Scott reaffirmed the collaborative nature of their partnership, yet the anticipation for MAI's release remains high amid ongoing testing and a projected launch possibly at the 2024 Microsoft Build conference.
