ME AI News, Dongcha Beating AI Bulletin: Microsoft has moved AI Frontiers from Microsoft Research into Microsoft AI (MAI), led by Mustafa Suleyman. Established in October 2023, this lab primarily focuses on small models and agents. Projects such as AutoGen, FARA, Magentic-One, Magentic-UI, and Phi were previously developed by this team. The open-source multi-agent framework AutoGen later merged with the AI application development SDK Semantic Kernel into Microsoft’s unified agent development framework, Microsoft Agent Framework. AI Frontiers will continue its cutting-edge research on agents and models. MAI is also training a series of models and has formed a Superintelligence team with the goal of developing what it calls “Humanist Superintelligence”—defined by Microsoft as high-capability AI that is problem-specific, remains under human control, and serves human needs. Ece Kamar, former head of AI Frontiers, recently left Microsoft after 16 years. She described establishing AI Frontiers as one of the highlights of her Microsoft career; her next steps have not yet been announced. (Source: BlockBeats)
