an AI chatbot technology called Bard that will begin rolling out in the coming weeks. Bard will compete directly with ChatGPT.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman attended Microsoft's Tuesday event and confirmed that Microsoft incorporated some of OpenAI's GPT-3.5 language technologies into Bing to improve its capabilities."I feel like I've been waiting for this for 20 years so I'm very happy it's here," Altman said during the presentation.

It turned out to be a massive boon for a company that largely missed the transition to mobile computing.Web Services and ahead of Google in the cloud infrastructure market.

"We've gone through some very harsh ones. The last one we went through was obviously the mobile and cloud. We caught one, we missed one."
