According to reports, the tech giant is quietly abandoning expensive third-party AI models in favor of its own developed technology. According to Bloomberg, Microsoft has discreetly deployed its latest self-developed MAI model directly into Excel and Outlook applications. An anonymous source familiar with the matter revealed that this behind-the-scenes technology replacement has been processing tens of thousands of AI prompt commands weekly in the aforementioned spreadsheet and email applications. Microsoft's core office applications had previously relied heavily on external AI pioneers such as OpenAI and Anthropic, and this is the first time the scale of its self-developed MAI model deployment has been revealed. This strategic shift marks an important evolution in Microsoft's AI layout: while striving to keep its core software suite running at full speed, it is actively working to significantly reduce the enormous infrastructure costs of artificial intelligence. _This article was translated with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
