Microsoft Engineers are currently preparing the server capacity in the upcoming GPT-4.5 and GPT-5 OpenAI models, according to the source knowing the company’s plans. While the OPENAI CEO Altman itself He recently admitted that GPT-4.5 will be launched in a few weeks, I understand that Microsoft is expecting to organize a modern AI model next week.
Orion Orion, GPT-4.5 is the next model of Frontier Opeli and the last model of the company. Opeli has already proved that GPT-4.5 can be much more powerful than GPT-4, but the company also looks at its GPT-5 model, which will include more significant changes.
I was told that Microsoft is expecting GPT-5 at the end of May, which is in line with Altman’s promise that the next generation model came within a few months. As always, this date can change if the plans of release change. In October, we informed that Opeli originally planned to issue GPT-4.5 by the end of 2024, but then it was delayed until the beginning of 2025.
GPT-5 will probably be a more significant version of a pair, and Altman called it “a system that integrates many of our technologies.” It also includes a modern OPENAI reasoning model, which the company irritated during 12 days of Christmas advertisements in December.
While Openai released O3-Mini last month, OpenAI is no longer planning to send O3 as an independent model, and instead will be integrated with this GPT-5 system. This is in line with OpenAI’s goal to combine your huge language models to finally create a more talented model that can be called artificial general intelligence or agi.
If Openai manages to send GPT-5 at the end of May, it will be good in accordance with the Microsoft Build Developer-which conference will start on May 19 and will go this week with Google I/O. Altman appeared on the stage on Microsoft Build last year, just a few days after the release of OpenAI GPT-4O as a faster model that was free for all CHATGPT users.
Last year, I reported that the release of the GPT-4O OPENAI was surprised by some bands in Microsoft because they undermined their own AI Microsoft services on Azure, which include speech and translation functions. GPT-4.5 and GPT-5 editions should be less surprising and I expect that the software manufacturer will be ready with Copilot’s updates shortly after the latest operating OPENAI. Microsoft gave Copilot a great redesign in October, just a few months after the release of OPENAI GPT-4O.
Like OpenAI, Microsoft also worked on improving the Copilot model collector, so that users were easier to interact with AI assistant without choosing the AI model of power supply with these interactions. Microsoft had “creative”, “balanced” and “precise” options that will assist control the model’s output, but scrapped them with great renovation Copilot last year. In January, Microsoft added the “Think deep” button, which uses the OPENAI O1 reasoning model to answer inquiries.
Microsoft is also working on its own version of the modern AI Openai operator, who can do things on the internet. The operator may interact with GUI on websites, allowing him to automatically take action for you. This is a similar concept to macro, which can automate the tasks or autopilot system on aircraft, which does not require constant human attention.
I expect many AI ads from Microsoft in the coming months, especially in May, where he can present his latest technology to programmers building AI applications and products. Microsoft has recently focused on the capabilities of its AI agents and I heard that the teams are trying to reduce costs to make them even more attractive to companies.
Microsoft Build and Google We/O also coincide this year, so expect that both companies try each other in ads and especially from GPT-5, which will debut at the same time.
- The Microsoft Xbox AI era starts with a model that can generate the game. I waited for Microsoft to start talking seriously about his AI plan, and this week surprised everyone with a model that can generate visualizations and more. Microsoft Research has created a Muse, a generative AI model that can generate a game environment based on visual activities or player controllers. Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer He even claimed that it could be used to restore senior games “without the need to start the original engine on the original equipment.” This is early work at the research stage and may not lead to anything significant, but some game developers They are unhappy Microsoft even examines this idea.
- Microsoft announces a breakthrough of quantum calculations with a modern Majorana 1 system. Microsoft claims that this week he made a key breakthrough in the scope of quantum calculations with a research project and a processor based on modern material and architecture for quantum calculations. The Majorana 1 processor can fit in the hand, and Microsoft claims that one day it can match a million cubits – information units in the scope of quantum calculations – on the system. The processor is based on Majoran particles, and Microsoft claims that he has created “the world’s first topcondator”, a modern type of material that can not only observe, but also control the majorated particles to create more reliable cubits. We are still far from quantum calculations, but if Microsoft’s milestone is as huge as he claims, this is one more step to a potential solution to industrial problems.
- Microsoft is not yet automatically logged in to its account. Last month, Microsoft began to display notifications at Outlook.com about maintaining automatic login on his account. The changes were to be introduced in February, which means that you will automatically log in to the Microsoft account unless you signed. Microsoft now claims that these notifications and support document were a mistake and it is not clear when changes will finally appear.
- Microsoft Boss says Agi, a quantum breakthrough and many others. Microsoft CEO Satya nadella Discussed the company’s quantum breakthrough why he does not believe in Agi, and the modern AI Muse Gaming model in hourly interview This week from the podcaster Dwarkesh Patel. Nadella also thought about her 34 years in Microsoft and how crucial it is for Microsoft to remain adequate when it approaches the 50th anniversary.
- Xbox now supports larger external difficult drives. The latest update of the Xbox MA navigation desktop He began to developAnd the main addition is the ability to connect difficult disks with any size with the Xbox console. Earlier it was circumscribed to 16 TB, but now Xbox consoles can create partitions with a maximum of 16 TB each, unlocking mass support. This is a great change if you have a huge amount of storage on hand and should allow you to keep more than a few giants Call of duty sports competitions. But you will still have to copy current S / X Xbox Series titles to faster internal memory or removable memory to play them.
- Copilot in Excel can now refer to office files. Copilot was not as wealthy in functions in Excel as in other office applications, but Microsoft is Now I am testing a new function This allows you to refer to Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files in the Excel version of its AI tools. This should facilitate the download of content in the case of tables, and even pulling key data from the WORD document and import it into a spreadsheet.
- Microsoft does not remove service for the Intel processors group. Microsoft has recently updated the processor service list to update 24H2 to Windows 11 and it causes it a lot of confusion. The list no longer contains the support of Intel processors, 9 and 10th generation, but I understand that this list is not true and will soon be determined.
- Soon you will be able to remember E -Mail in Outlook on Android and iOS. If you’ve ever accidentally sent an e -mail message from the phone, then you had to climb to remember the Outlook program for Windows, Microsoft has a modern function for you. Remind E -Mail in Outlook Mobile It will allow you to withdraw e -mail from the recipient’s inbox after pressing Send. It will be available in Outlook test versions for Android and iOS at the end of February and should appear for all Outlook Mobile users in the coming months. Microsoft is too Adding custom tables Soon support for Android and iOS.
- Microsoft Powertoys receives support for installing Winget packages. Microsoft has He began to tease The ability of the PowerToys function to run to install Windows. Uses WNINGET, Microsoft Windows Package Manager, to download the latest versions of popular Windows applications and facilitate their installation from the PowerToys Run function.
- Windows Recall is approaching. It seems that Microsoft is approaching the release of withdrawal to Copilot Plus computers. AI powered function has been previewed for several months, and Microsoft is Now preparing updates For people with Windows who will remove existing snapshots. This suggests that there are major changes along the way and that Microsoft is approaching public public launch.
