AI Overview
Microsoft’s AI strategy is currently generating massive revenue, with an AI business run rate of over $37 billion. However, the AI division faces significant profitability challenges, largely driven by staggering capital expenditures, data center costs, and multi-billion dollar losses stemming from its deep ties with OpenAI.

When they abandon all these ai data centers...the taxpayers will be on the hook for all the billions (trillions if all are included that have been built) of dollars worth of "tax abatement's".

Does Bill need money to buy billions of infected ticks for disbursement among the states. Ol' Bill is a big tick fan these days.

For work I have subscriptions for ChatGPT and Claude. If they quadrupled the price, I’d pick just one but would still pay it.

It is that valuable for me.

AI Overview
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation recently formed a $200 million partnership with Anthropic to apply artificial intelligence to global health, and finalized the complete offloading of its historical Microsoft holdings to diversify its $31.7 billion trust Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation Trust Portfolio. These moves fuel a record-breaking $9 billion annual budget designed to spend down all assets and close the foundation by 2045 Gates Foundation to spend $9 billion this year ahead of 2045 closure.
