Microsoft announced its AI unit developed MAI-Base-2, a new model that reportedly outperforms OpenAI's GPT-5.6 while using only about 25% of the computing resources. This model, with 80 billion active parameters, is said to be 4-12 times more efficient in pre-training calculations. Microsoft plans to license the model to partners but has not provided a release date or public benchmarks yet. The claim highlights Microsoft's strategy to reduce costs and increase margins by using its own AI models alongside its stake in OpenAI, though the market reaction was muted as investors await proof and further details.

Despite the news, Pluang investors show a cautious stance with 89% selling activity and only 11% buying, reflecting measured market sentiment toward Microsoft's AI developments.
