Here’s how Microsoft plans to reap billions from AI
Microsoft has become the undisputed leader in AI, thanks to its investment in ChatGPT and the chatbot’s integration into Bing. The company has invested $11 billion in OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, and that’s in addition to whatever it's spending internally to develop AI, which is considerable.
So far, though, Microsoft has little revenue to show for it. If you believe the press, the company's chatbot so far has mainly been used for the equivalent of tech parlor tricks, stunts like creating a cover of Beyoncé's "Cuff It" as if it were sung by Rihanna, writing a Seinfeld script in which Jerry and George plot to kill Jeffrey Epstein in prison, and passing a law school exam.
