Shocking betrayal! Microsoft’s top AI whiz, Sebastian Bubeck, defects to arch-rival OpenAI, leaving Big Tech stunned. The Information broke the news, and Reuters confirmed it, but we’re sure Microsoft is still trying to process the trauma.

Bubeck, the mastermind behind Microsoft’s Phi models, a series of revolutionary AI breakthroughs that will soon render those massive, centralized models like GPT-4o obsolete. His expertise in miniaturized, on-device AI is the future, and OpenAI is desperately trying to catch up.

Will Bubeck be working on the “dark side” of AI, peddling his his skills to the highest bidder, or is this a genuine attempt to shake things up in the AI world? One thing is certain: this power play will have far-reaching consequences, and the future of AI is about to get a whole lot more interesting (and ominous).
