In terms of AI, almost all major IT companies have achieved notable success. Microsoft through its collaboration with Bing Search, Azure, Copilot, and OpenAI. Google is developing numerous AI initiatives, including Gemini AI. While Amazon is making noise in the enterprise AI space, Meta is optimistic about Llama.
