Microsoft to integrate ChatGPT-4o in Azure AI Studio

The first day of Microsoft's (MSFT) Build event in Seattle has kicked off with a series of announcements and product unveilings, pushing the tech giant to the forefront of artificial intelligence innovation. One of the event's main highlights is the company's unveiling of its plans to integrate OpenAI's ChatGPT-4o into its Azure AI Studio offering.

Yahoo Finance's tech reporter Dan Howley breaks down the details, providing insights into how this integration will impact computer usage moving forward.

It's day one of the Microsoft Build event.

Our Dan Halley is in Washington at that conference in Washington State.

That is Dan, what can you tell us about the event so far?

Yeah, Julie, I'm here in uh Seattle at the Seattle Convention Center.

Uh We had Satya de take the stage as well as uh Kevin Scott and special guest, Sam Altman of Open A I.

Uh essentially what the, the big to do here is, is A I I know you guys are just talking about NVIDIA.

It's trickling everywhere.

And Microsoft obviously with their, their team up with Open A I being a huge beneficiary of it.

The, the big deal here is them getting uh G BT 40 to their Azure suite, which means that companies will be able to build their own kind of copilots which are essentially A I assistance using GP T 40.

And so that's a huge deal for Microsoft to be able to offer to its customers.

And in addition to that, they talked about how they're building out github as well and they're going to continue to offer various copilots across its different offerings.

But really, I think the main deal here is, is that GP T 40, is going to be available right away, uh, for Azure.

And that's something that Microsoft really does have as a big, uh, uh, benefit over the likes of someone like Google or Amazon and Dan.

So you're there right now and, and, and Microsoft executives, they're on stage.

You're talking chat, G BT 40, giving demos.

How should we expect how that technology Dan is gonna just kind of change the way we interact with our computers.

Yeah, I think the, the big deal with, with this in particular is the, they, they call it multi modality.

But really what that means is that you'll be able to use video uh voice and text and it's the video aspect that's really kind of fundamentally different than what we've had before.

There's been video offerings in the past.

But the way it, it all comes together in this package is truly interesting.

And so some of the ways that they demonstrated on stage in some prerecords albeit was a developer having trouble with a code.

They were, you know, doing their coding, they couldn't figure something out.

And so they pulled up the copilot on their, their phone or uh powered by GP T 40, and they said, hey, what's wrong with this code?

And they use their camera to show the A I, the code on their computer screen and then it was able to say, oh, hey, why don't you try changing this aspect of the code to get the outcome that you want?

So those are the kinds of things that really start to get you thinking about.

What does the potential future of this technology look like?

It's not just H I GP T make me a dumb poem or something like that.

It's really a fundamental difference now, when you add in the video, as well as the voice.

And so I think that's where a lot of companies are going to end up going.

Now, obviously, the, the big question uh remains as far as hallucinations go accuracy.

That's something that they're continuing to work on different technologies like rag that they're using to cut down on hallucinations and the more they advance, the fewer they'll be uh that being said, this is still one of the most interesting technologies to come out of this.

And as you were talking about NVIDIA, it's going to need to be powered in some way.

And NVIDIA right now is the one that's doing it.

Indeed, they are.

And we're uh in case we didn't mention the reporting earnings after the close tomorrow.

I'm not sure if we know that, Dan, thanks so much.

Appreciate it.
