Generative AI is revolutionizing how we create, share, work with, and consume content. At Microsoft, we run the biggest platform for collaboration and productivity in the world with hundreds of millions of consumer/enterprise users. Tacklingthese experiences at scale.

are workingefficiency across AI systems, where we look at novel designs and optimizations across AI stacks:models, AI frameworks, cloudinfrastructure, and. We believe that enabling cross-layer optimization is the key to achieve a step-function improvement in AI efficiencyto provide generative AI experiences to more users globally.

We are an Applied Research team driving mid- and long-term product innovations. We closely collaborate with multiple research teams and product groups across the globe who bring a multitude of technical expertise in cloud systems, machine learning and software engineering. We communicate our research both internally and externally through academic publications, open-source releases, blog posts, patents, and industry conferences. Further, we also collaborate with academic and industry partners to advance the state of the artand target material product impact that will affect 100s of millions of customers.
