At least from the article, it seems he wants to position Microsoft as someone who provides access to all models including non frontier models in order to democratize access. He sees OpenAI, Anthropic and Google as the AI giants who are trying to dictate the future.
Not really. Microsoft is more of a proprietary software monopolist that has strangled the economy for the past few decades, and they don't want to lose what remains of their lucrative position.
CEO of a company that failed to become an AI giant says we can't let the companies that succeeded take their slice of the pie.

Why do you think Microsoft is an AI giant? In my books, the AI Giants are: Alphabet, OpenAI, and Anthropic.
I wouldn't rate Meta, SpaceX, or Microsoft as AI giants, even though they have AI products.
Isn’t GitHub copilot pretty huge? I personally hate it and avoid it as the plague, but I see people using it
Meta at least is an AI giant just from its internal use.

Nonsense. Everybody knows Cthulhu.
So why did they just hire all the AI2 folks?
This guy is just whinging he's behind.
