Satya Nadella, the chairman and CEO of Microsoft, has recently become a part of Threads, a Twitter alternative developed by Meta. This announcement coincided with the revelation of a new partnership in the field of artificial intelligence between Meta and Microsoft. Nadella expressed his enthusiasm about joining Threads and expanding the AI collaboration with Meta.
In his inaugural Threads post, he stated, “Today is an incredible day to join Threads! We’re thrilled to strengthen our AI partnership with Meta by integrating their Llama family of large language models into Azure. This aligns perfectly with our vision of becoming the preferred cloud platform for both cutting-edge and open models.”
Prominent tech CEOs like Sundar Pichai from Google and Andy Jassy from Amazon are also actively using Threads. Additionally, the founders of Microsoft (Bill Gates) and Amazon (Jeff Bezos) have their accounts on the platform as well. However, Apple CEO Tim Cook has not yet joined Threads.
Nadella also shared a link to an official Microsoft blog post that announced the partnership between Meta and Microsoft. The blog post stated, “Meta and Microsoft have announced support for the Llama 2 family of large language models (LLMs) on Azure and Windows. Llama 2 has been designed to empower developers and organizations to create AI-powered tools and experiences.”
“Meta and Microsoft both share a commitment to democratizing AI and its benefits, and we are thrilled that Meta is adopting an open approach with Llama 2. We provide developers with choices when it comes to the types of models they build on, supporting open and cutting-edge models. We are honored to be Meta’s preferred partner as they introduce their new version of Llama 2 to commercial customers for the first time,” the blog post further stated.
Threads, introduced by Meta on July 6 this year, aims to challenge Twitter in the social media landscape. The app is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Users can share posts with up to 500 characters and include links, photos, and videos up to 5 minutes in length.
Recent reports suggest that Threads may introduce a feature similar to Twitter’s Direct Messaging (DMs). This feature would enable users to privately send messages within the Threads platform.
