Investing.com – Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is working to develop large-scale artificial intelligence models by next year, as part of the company’s efforts to create an internal alternative to address OpenAI and Anthropic’s advanced AI tools.

Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman said in an interview with Bloomberg News that the company’s goal is to achieve state-of-the-art capabilities by 2027 in models that can respond to or generate text, images, and audio.

On Thursday, Suleyman’s division released a speech-to-text transcription model, which Microsoft said outperformed competing products in benchmark tests across 11 of the 25 most widely used languages. The model is a specialized tool designed for efficiency, with fewer training data points than general-purpose models such as Claude 3 Opus or OpenAI’s GPT-4.

Suleyman said Microsoft is building the computing infrastructure needed to develop broader-functionality models. This past October, the company began using Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) GB200 chip clusters to expand its computing resources. He said the company plans to scale its compute capability to leading-edge levels within the next 12 to 18 months.
