Microsoft: "I'm Playing Both Sides So I Always Come Out On Top"

[RoninLeonim]

Microsoft didn't leave Open AI, they just added Mistral to their AI harem.

[BunkerSquirrel]

it's remarkable. every single thing they showcased at the expo was already done 10 years ago.

[mattdani]

"replacing your dog" reminded me that there is a map in halo infinite where an ad is displayed that says something along the lines of "man's best friend just got an upgrade!" and shows a dog with robot body, or maybe it was just robot legs and tail, but couldn't really tell.

I can think of one use case for the transparent laptop screen. When working in venues as event technician, sometimes the laptop screen does get in the way to see everything of the dance floor. A transparent screen could help there

[Razear]

The fact that AI chatbots became mainstream before Microsoft's engineers figured out how to issue Windows updates without forcing a system restart is crazy.

[MrIse]

MistralAI went OpenAI way of "closing" it's open source commitment. And now I know why.

[rpfour]

To be fair, Mistral's perspective on AI is different from what OpenAI offers.

I'm grasping at straws but maybe they can layer multiple transparent displays together to make a 3D display? They could also be used as snap-on HUDs for vehicles or small electronics?

[lucianocarcagno]

Oh man the "prision and a$$" joke made my day. Thanks guys!

[_Piers_]

I'm glad they're making a wearable phone!
I find it terribly hard work to smash mine and that'll make it so much easier!

[CognosSquare]

The hot patches joke really landed in fertile soil. Good job James.

[tmaxnun]

Nothing is more friendly to competing businesses than knowing all of your competitors secrets through a 'partnership'

[ravensdot]

The Barbie flip phone seems promising, but I have to ask: is it Kenough?

[matthewsjardine]

Microsoft's documentation for Copilot in Azure never mentioned that it will be linked to Chat GPT only. Instead, they talk about an AI platform and even mention that you may be able to bring your own and tie it in. Offering more options out of the gate seems like a good idea. They don't want people to think of Copilot simply as a rebranded Chat GPT with some Microsoft stuff sprinkled on it.

[telsan]

They used digital foundry’s footage for the 7900GRE and didn’t even give them a mention, shameful!

[Veptis]

I was excited for MWC news for a new generation of CAT phones. Only to find out that Bullit LTD, who were building these phones - went bankrupt.

[elchicovip]

The transparent screen can be used for demostration. A replacment for projectors or large screens

[hiddenlawyer]

6:57 Wow, what a great example of the enshitification process!
