A working definition, three real dated products — ChatGPT agent, Claude Code and GitHub Copilot's coding agent — and the limits documented by the companies that build them: reliability, supervision and cost. A sober guide to telling an agent from a slogan.
Anthropic will commit $30 billion to Azure capacity, while NVIDIA and Microsoft invest up to $10 billion and $5 billion in the company, respectively. Claude is coming to Microsoft Foundry and will be available across the three major clouds.
OpenAI is turning its commercial arm into a foundation-controlled public benefit corporation. Microsoft gets 27%, retains technology access through 2032 and commits to $250 billion in Azure.
UK-based Builder.ai, backed by Microsoft and Qatar, has announced that it is entering insolvency. Its collapse combines accounts under review, an automation promise questioned since 2019, and the limits of selling AI as a complete substitute for technical work.
Microsoft has unveiled Phi-4, a 14-billion-parameter model that prioritizes mathematical reasoning over sheer size, trained largely on synthetic data designed to maximize learning quality.
OpenAI is negotiating new funding led by Thrive Capital, with Microsoft and Nvidia expected to participate. The deal could value the ChatGPT maker at more than $100 billion.
NVIDIA closed the June 18 session as the world's most valuable publicly traded company, ahead of Microsoft and Apple. The market is rewarding its central role in the infrastructure used to train and run artificial intelligence models.
Microsoft is launching Copilot+ PCs, a new category of computers with AI running locally. Its Recall feature creates a visual history of activity, promising easier searches while raising privacy concerns.
Microsoft has launched Phi-3-mini, a 3.8-billion-parameter language model designed to perform like much larger systems. Its compact size makes it easier to run generative AI on phones, computers and lower-cost applications.
Microsoft Research has unveiled VASA-1, a system that generates a video of a talking face from an image and audio. The advance makes these avatars more expressive, but the company will not release it because of the risk of impersonation.
Microsoft has created Microsoft AI, a new division for its consumer AI products, led by Mustafa Suleyman, the co-founder of DeepMind and Inflection. The company is also bringing on several key members of Inflection.
