According to reports, a reliable source familiar with Microsoft's plans has revealed that Microsoft has been instructing its engineers of artificial intelligence infrastructure to prepare to host Musk's Grok AI model. In recent weeks, Microsoft has been in discussions with xAI about hosting the Grok model and providing it to customers and Microsoft's own product teams through Azure cloud services. This move may cause controversy internally and further escalate tensions with Microsoft's partner OpenAI. It is reported that if the deal continues, Grok will be available on Microsoft's artificial intelligence development platform Azure AI Foundry, which allows developers to access AI services, tools, and pre-built models to build AI applications and agents. This will enable developers to access Grok and use it in their own applications, and Microsoft may also use this AI model in their own applications and services.
