The Clap
Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) and China’s ByteDance are collaborating on a project called KubeRay, a software that helps companies run more efficiently on artificial intelligence (AI).
The Deets
Microsoft is looking to strengthen its efforts in AI, investing heavily among competitors like Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL), Meta (NASDAQ: META), and Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL).
Microsoft’s collaboration with ByteDance draws attention due to the growing rivalry between the US and China in AI and intellectual property.
