Microsoft AI

Microsoft's $13B bet on OpenAI turned into the defining tech partnership of the 2020s — giving it exclusive cloud rights to GPT models and transforming Azure into the premier AI platform. Copilot integration across Windows, Office, GitHub, and Azure has generated $10B+ in incremental annual revenue since its 2023 launch. GitHub Copilot alone is used by 1.8 million paid developers and has been shown to increase coding productivity by 55%. Microsoft's AI infrastructure now spans 60+ data center regions globally, and its AI Cloud services grew 60% year-over-year in fiscal 2025.
