Microsoft's AI Ethics Team Faces Cuts and Rationed Access to Hardware.
TL;DR Summary
Microsoft is facing an internal shortage of server hardware needed to run GPT-4, the new AI software made by OpenAI, which is set to power a suite of Office 365 tools. The company is rationing access to the hardware for some internal teams building other AI tools to ensure it has enough capacity to handle both Bing's new GPT-4 powered chatbot and the upcoming new Office tools. The shortage of hardware may also be affecting Microsoft customers who are experiencing long wait times to use the OpenAI software available through its Azure cloud service.
