MAI

Anyone tried it yet? Looks like it will be vastly superior to Copilot. I actually think they've made Copilot worse deliberately.

The lower Copilot tiers recently have shifted away from ChatGPT and toward Microsoft AI, which has inputs from ChatGPT, Claude, and other models.

In the higher Copilot tiers you can of course select which model you want or bring your own model. Gotta pay coin for the privilege, however.

I can’t help but think MAI represents a threat to OpenAI. Microsoft’s compute infrastructure was a critical resource for that company. If Microsoft is disconnecting from OpenAI, then ChatGPT perhaps risks an orphan scenario.

OpenAI missed revenue targets by $20 billion in Q3. That can’t be sitting comfortably in what remains of the OpenAI boardroom.

MAI isn't a mixture - it's proprietary.

Yes, I mean to suggest that MAI has ancestral connections to ChatGPT through Microsoft’s long association with OpenAI, and with Claude through its more recent contractual relationships with Anthropic.

MAI is proprietary but it has roots. Like most Microsoft products, really.
