#2> At Microsoft, we are focused on empowering both people and organizations
Yeah, right. Any and all of the big ones will never create artificial intelligence.. they by definition can only create (and keep) things/entities that have patience for empty marketing speak.

#3The link title is misleading. MS will not have 5k people working on AI. They merged their MS Research and their AI engineering team. It's not like they are going to drop all the other research they are doing to focus solely on AI. The new org is called the AI and Research Group. This is just a reorganization to democratize some of the resources available within MS.

Hope not... their rise4fun teams are some of the best stuff I can find on the web. Please keep that fundamental research alive.

#5This seems good strategy. I am no expert, but AFAIK Microsoft research division is maybe (the) most advanced and most achieved research division in whole industry. Just look at people with H-Index more than 30 who works in Microsoft research.

I don't understand how that's not the same. Ok, they are not hiring 5000 new people, but the end result is the same.
