Distillation is ‘like magic’
Microsoft’s ideal, Nadella said, is a layer of orchestration that will offer the ability to mix and combine AI models, with users that extract different aspects of intelligence from different models in areas where they stand out. The open source “absolutely has a massive and massive role to play” in the building of such platforms.
“I am not dogmatic about closed or open source code, both are necessary in the world,” he said. “And customers will demand, right?”
Whether it interacts between SQL, MySQL, Postgres, Linux, Windows or other products, observing a posture that allows interoperability is incredibly important, Nadella said. Business clients want to be able to distill personalized models built with their intellectual property (IP), and open weight models will have a “great structural advantage” in supporting that, compared to closed models.
