According to reports, major technology companies are grappling with the challenge of turning their AI ventures into profitable endeavors, despite the enthusiastic response from consumers. The primary obstacle lies in the substantial operational costs associated with maintaining AI products. AI tools, particularly those yet to establish market durability, can prove costly to operate due to their reliance on powerful servers equipped with expensive, powerhungry chips. Unlike conventional software, AI requires specific algorithms to process each query, with the energy consumption varying based on the querys complexity. This results in substantial expenses, especially for highfrequency users. For instance, Microsoft faces losses with GitHub Copilot, an AI coding assistant, as it incurs a deficit of $20 per user per month, with some users costing as much as $80. Read More..

Microsoft also suggests not using Microsoft 365 for bulk email sending and recommends onpremises servers or thirdparty providers for such purposes. This advice comes as a response to Googles guidelines for senders who send more than 5,000 emails daily to Gmail users. Read More..
