- throwaway290 3y agoMS is not "funding AI revolution", it is throwing a lot of money to OpenAI (which may as well be considered part of MS considering how much they owe it) to let it keep prices artificially low so users get addicted while it bleeds those money. Simultaneously trying to carve a moat to get some ROI on those money later.
