With New in-House Models, Microsoft Lays the Groundwork for Independence From OpenAI
Microsoft's MAI-Voice-1 generates one minute of audio in under a second on a single GPU, while MAI-1-preview showcases future AI capabilities within Copilot tools.
- On Thursday, Microsoft introduced two internally developed AI models, MAI-Voice-1 and MAI-1-preview, marking a significant step forward in its artificial intelligence efforts under the guidance of Mustafa Suleyman.
- Microsoft developed these models to reduce reliance on external providers like OpenAI and ensure efficiency and cost-effectiveness for consumers.
- MAI-Voice-1 is an exceptionally fast speech synthesis model that can generate 60 seconds of audio in less than one second using a single GPU, while MAI-1-preview is a text-based model trained with approximately 15,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs.
- Suleyman highlighted the necessity for internal skills and knowledge to build leading AI models globally, stressing the importance of carefully selecting optimal training data.
- Microsoft plans to integrate MAI-1-preview selectively into its Copilot AI assistant and believes these models help it compete independently within the AI industry.
