🚨 do you understand what just happened to Microsoft..

Microsoft just dropped seven of its own MAI models, trained from scratch with zero distillation, and said its custom-tuned models already match GPT-tier quality at 10x lower cost.

The partner that pays OpenAI's bills is now quietly building the thing that replaces it.

- MAI-Thinking-1 hits human-preference parity with Sonnet 4.6 and 53% on SWE Bench Pro, right next to Opus 4.6
- MAI-Code-1-Flash delivers Haiku-class coding at just 5B params and is already shipping inside GitHub Copilot
- A custom MAI model tuned for Excel matched GPT-5.4 while running up to 10x more efficiently
- Their real weapon isn't the weights, it's that they're already inside everyone's Office, Teams, and VS Code

The hard part was never training a good model. The hard part is being the room everyone already works in. Microsoft owns the room.

100 years from now, when all the vicissitudes of politics, social media, etc. in 2024 are long forgotten, people will still remember this as a milestone in humanity’s conquest of space.

Venture capital has arguably been one of the highest-performing investments for the past 25 years. But for most investors, it was out of reach.

Now, you can invest in some of the world's top tech companies, including those leading the AI revolution, before they go public.

looking more closely at this new Windows 11 dialog box, it's an important and subtle change. This will make it easier and clearer to switch default apps / browsers straight away, instead of it being a tick box that most people don't notice
