Mark Zuckerberg has thrown how much into AI and Microsoft is passing them by as if they don't even exist. You know that meme about how IE is the browser eating paste, while Firefox and Chrome fight it out... Meta AI is the "kid" eating paste, while Google, Anthropic, OpenAI and Microsoft duke it out.

Edit for those curious:

Are they though? Microsoft is still in the eating paste phase of their journey. Copilot was a huge flop.

_Which_ copilot? Lots of big businesses are buying github copilot for their devs, I wouldn't call it a flop by any stretch.

Even if it were somehow a flop, whats Mark Zuckerberg offering? My key point still stands. Mark Zuckerberg is asleep at the wheel burning billions with zero to show for it.

Don’t fall for the hype cycle. Just wait till the blogosphere confirms that it’s useful stuff.

I doubt you’ll feel so strongly in a month or two.

I already use Microsoft Phi offline, I would be more surprised if they made a model commercially that is worse than their open weight model.
