MicrosoftがOpenAIに矛先を向けた理由：社内の販売メモが元パートナーをこき下ろすように
Microsoftは、OpenAIやAnthropicを自社モデルと比較して否定的に評価するよう販売スタッフを訓練しており、性能とセキュリティの優位性を主張している。コスト削減のため自社製AIを推進する中で、パートナーシップから直接競争への転換を示している。
microsoft is reportedly training its sales force to compete aggressively against openai and anthropic by criticizing their models compared to microsofts in-house phi models. evp jacob andreou presented data claiming anthropics claude was slower and less accurate than copilot within office apps and lacked proper security integrations. this pivot comes after microsoft recently removed the exclusivity clause from its openai partnership and began replacing external models with proprietary ones in flagship products like word and excel. the shift aims to reassure investors concerned about microsofts massive ai spending by demonstrating the competitiveness and cost-efficiency of its own technology.
