Microsoft Corp. has developed a new large language model that it says is significantly more efficient than leading open-source alternatives. The company’s artificial intelligence research group detailed the algorithm on Thursday. MAI-Base-2 is not a full-fledged LLM but rather a base model, a kind of no-frills prototype. Developers turn base models into LLMs by putting […] The post Microsoft reveals cutting-edge MAI-Base-2 model with 2T parameters appeared first on SiliconANGLE.

How OpenSmartRoute helps
For a team that routes through the router, a release like this is one catalogue entry. The new model competes on the next request against what the team already runs, on quality, cost and speed. If it answers well it earns more traffic; if it fails it gets less, with no code change in the app.
Any OpenAI-compatible provider works, as do open-weight models served locally. The catalogue at https://opensmartroute.ai lists models with their prices and live rankings, and the savings ledger shows what the routing saved against always using the most expensive option.
