The idiots at Microsoft have money to burn, and they don’t know what to do with it.
Companies with cash to burn:
1. Alphabet Inc. - $136 billion
2. Microsoft Corporation - $130 billion ...
3. Amazon.com Inc. - $90 ...
4. Facebook - $64 billion ...
5. Apple Inc. – $62 billion ...
Don't the Obama/Biden Democrats want to massively tax
all of those super rich greedy capitalist pig companies
to make them pay their "fair share"? They said they did.
Oh, now I remember; these companies "donate" hundreds of
millions of dollars exclusively to the Democrats. The
taxes are only for middle/working class white
folks and families.
Oh they (MSFT) knows what to do with it. Whether they can succeed remains to be seen. But there is not an industry that won’t benefit from AI in some form or another. Heck, if they wanted to they could try to compete with Disney using a purely AI generated script and cartoon characters. They can compete with Google for search. They can develop scripts for robotic companies anything from autonomous forklifts to hamburger flippers. Fully automated customer service systems - no more “press 2 for English” type crap just talk into a device, practically any device, and it answers your questions on behalf of the company. Military contracts. Material sourcing.
How much they want to deploy as consumer facing products, and how much AI software (and software development) as a service and/or licensing type deals I guess we’ll see in time.
