(PC WORLD) Microsoft is investing heavily in the technology, which could become an integral part of the Office suite.

In recent weeks and months, there has been a lot of buzz about artificial intelligence and the breakthroughs it has brought. In just a few days millions of users wrote analysis, reports and poems about ChatGPT, and in artistic circles there is a debate about whether art can be called art if it is according to some conditions set by the AI, and the problems that arise when software starts to simply hunt up images from the internet and use other people's artwork and style.

Microsoft has seen the potential in artificial intelligence years ago, with the Redmond-based company investing $1 billion in OpenAI, which also develops ChatGPT, in 2019, and if the latest rumours are true, they could push the company's wagon with another $10 billion. According to inside sources, this could be because Microsoft is trying to integrate OpenAI's artificial intelligence into Word, Outlook, PowerPoint and others. This would allow users to generate paragraphs or full essays, send reply-to emails, find emails even if they haven't typed in the right keyword, all in a few clicks.

Of course, implementation has its challenges. Over the past weeks, dozens of users have shown that AI is capable of very convincing, selective reasoning based on factual errors, and delivered with confidence. In addition, there is the expectation of confidentiality, because what company would want an AI that learns from their internal correspondence and communications to then make what they say available to anyone. The direction itself is not entirely new from Microsoft, some of the GPT features are already used by Word, for example for autocomplete suggestions.
