Listen to this story

Mustafa Suleyman, former co-founder and head of DeepMind and Inflection AI, has joined Microsoft as the CEO of Microsoft AI. He would be leading the consumer AI products which includes Copilot, Bing, and Edge. 

Along with Suleyman, co-founder of Inflection AI Karén Simonyan will be joining as Chief Scientist, and several others are also joining the team. Simonyan is also the creator of AlphaZero.

He posted on X saying that Inflection AI, the company he co-founded in 2022, is going to be joined by a new CEO. He further mentioned that the API would be now available for developers and businesses to use for wider adoption. 

Satya Nadella posted a blog saying that several other team members have also joined Microsoft AI. He further said that, “ Our AI innovation continues to build on our most strategic and important partnership with OpenAI. We will continue to build AI infrastructure inclusive of custom systems and silicon work in support of OpenAI’s foundation model roadmap, and also innovate and build products on top of their foundation models.”

Mikhail Parakhin and his team currently leading Copilot, Bing, and Edge, along with Misha Bileno and the generative AI team will now report to Suleyman, as posted by Nadella. 

Suleyman joined Google in 2014 when the search giant acquired DeepMind for $50 million. He was Google’s vice president of product management and policy for AI.

Recently, Inflection AI launched Inflection-2.5, a model that competes with all the world’s leading LLMs, including GPT-4 and Gemini. Inflection-2.5 approaches the performance level of GPT-4 but utilises only 40% of the computing resources for training.

The startup also raised $1.3 billion in their latest round of funding in June 2023 after the launch of their personal chatbot Pi.
