The whole story is a joke--Microsoft has AI?

Apparently they're cooking up MAI (Microsoft AI), and I'd seen their small Phi models listed online. Calling Anthropic a competitor is hilarious.

I find it quite amusing that Microsoft has Copilot and now puts Copilot in literally *EVERYTHING* they can think of, then at the same time, they offer you access to Anthropic's own models through Copilot I guess MAI models (Phi?) aren't good enough?

Wasn’t it 49%?

I remember that 49% figure as well, but I think it got changed during restructuring into a Public Benefit Corporation.
