Just in case you thought that maybe MS would not have enough hardware in place to service the load on MS2024!

It looks like their new data center is going to be centered on new tech AI. But not to worry about overloading MS2024 servers, looks like !!!

Microsoft could also be picking up a few OpenAI employees too. The OpenAI board done goofed up a little, methinks.

But the story isn't over yet, because Monday morning, 505 of 700 OpenAI employees sent a letter to the OpenAI board demanding that all current board members resign and Altman and Brockman be reinstated, or they will likely leave to join Altman and Brockman at Microsoft.
