Microsoft’s AI division head wants to create a lasting relationship between chatbots and their users
Fifty years after the founding of Microsoft, the CEO of its artificial intelligence division has a big task: develop a new product line as integral to daily life as the software giant's past innovations. “We’re really trying to land this idea that everybody is going to have their own personalized AI companion," said Mustafa Suleyman in an interview with The Associated Press. Giving the mic to Suleyman, who joined the company and Nadella's senior leadership team just over a year ago to head a newly formed Microsoft AI division, signals how important getting its AI right is to the company's future — in the next five years if not the next 50. And I kind of got into a long back and forth about what is açai and where does it come from.” Microsoft's own researchers, in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University, recently published a study that found that generative AI can inhibit critical thinking skills of human workers and lead to overreliance on the technology — a conclusion that Suleyman says he disagrees with. It’s going to be pretty amazing.” As he outlined those ideas in his keynote speech Friday, a shouting protester interrupted Suleyman to protest Microsoft's contracts to provide AI and cloud computing services to the Israeli military.
