Microsoft Looks Beyond OpenAI, Student Cracks Century-Old Math Problem, and Research Shows How Aspirin Fights Cancer | Discover Daily by Perplexity | Podwise
This Discover Daily podcast episode covers three key areas in tech and science. First, it reports on Microsoft's diversification of its AI strategy, moving away from sole reliance on OpenAI by developing its own MAI models and exploring collaborations with other AI companies. Second, it highlights a graduate student's refinement of a century-old mathematical problem in wind turbine aerodynamics, potentially leading to more efficient wind energy production. Finally, it discusses a University of Cambridge study revealing aspirin's potential in preventing cancer metastasis by enhancing the immune system's ability to target cancer cells. The episode concludes with a brief mention of Perplexity's new deep research feature.
