There go my hopes and dreams of the whole situation ending up being a good thing for open source and the competition in the AI space.
Lmao. Microsoft was never going to let that happen.
They looked at the mobile market and see they fucked up, they looked at the browser market and see they fucked up, they look at Google's online presence and see they fucked up, etc.
Sure, their enterprise sector is doing amazing, but they'll want to diversify and maintain a strong public presence for general consumers.
Microsoft saw "Open"AI and started salivating. As far as they're concerned, this is their chance to win big, and they want to control it with an iron grip.
Still could be. Something smells off with this whole thing.
