Microsoft Corp. announced new tools to help cloud customers build and deploy artificial intelligence applications, the company’s latest effort to get more revenue from generative AI.
Azure AI Foundry will make it easier to switch between the large language models undergirding artificial intelligence. A customer using an older OpenAI product can try a newer one or switch from OpenAI to tools from Mistral or Meta Platforms Inc., cloud computing chief Scott Guthrie said in an interview. Besides mixing and matching models, clients will be able to ensure applications are working properly and have a decent return on investment.
