Copilot에 더 저렴한 모델 탑재 — Microsoft의 OpenAI 요금을 줄이느라 품질은 떨어질까
microsoft가 비용을 낮추기 위해 excel과 outlook에서 openai와 anthropic 모델을 더 저렴한 자체 mai 모델로 교체하고 있습니다. 회사가 제3자 apis로의 지출을 줄이면서, copilot 사용자는 동일한 구독 가격으로 더 약한 AI를 받게 될 수도 있습니다.
microsoft has begun integrating its in-house mai models into excel and outlook, processing tens of thousands of requests previously routed to partners like openai and anthropic. despite benchmarks showing mai models trail competitors like claude sonnet 4.6, microsoft prioritizes cost reduction, with mustafa suleymans stating the goal is to eliminate vendor fees. this strategy suggests a future billing model where cheaper proprietary models are the standard, and high-performance third-party models become paid extras. customers may therefore see stagnation in baseline copilot quality even as microsoft touts clean data licensing for its training sets.
