Braid Smith also said- “If they are training a model on our infrastructure if they are deploying it on our infrastructure, we recognize that their data is their data, we will not access it and use it to compete with the companies that are relying on our infrastructure,”.

In his speech, he talks about the five tenets that define the goals of Microsoft, including its role as an infrastructure and platform provider. These five tenets of Microsoft are:

  1. Responsibility to enable innovation and foster competition.
  2. Responsibilities begin by meeting our obligations under the law.
  3. We need to advance a broad array of AI partnerships.
  4. Commitment to partnership extends to customers, communities, and countries.
  5. We need to be proactive and constructive.

Microsoft announces ‘AI access principles’ are not the binding rules for the company. They can use them to argue for their proactive efforts to ensure competition in the market.
