It's not like Microsoft has their finger on the pulse of technology advancement, they only got involved with AI to seem relevant, and now it's not worth doing anymore.

I was thinking this. Microsoft got some participation on OpenAI and has been paying them with cheap credits to run on their data centers. I guess they’re starting to worry that once the house of cards collapse, they’ll be the ones to pick up the pieces for any over-investment.
