New Z-code Mixture of Experts models improve quality, efficiency in Translator and Azure AI
Article's Summary:
Microsoft has recently deployed Z-code models to improve common language understanding tasks such as name entity recognition, text summarization, custom text classification and key phrase extraction across its Azure AI services. The new Z-code-based translation model is now available, by invitation initially, to customers using document translation in Translator, a Microsoft Azure Cognitive Service which is a part of Azure AI. Microsoft’s Z-code models consistently improved translation quality over current production models, according to common industry metrics. In contrast with typical multilingual transfer learning approaches, which typically show AI quality gains in languages that have fewer direct translation examples available for training, the Z-code Mixture of Experts models show consistent gains even in the largest languages. Human evaluators in a blind test commissioned by Microsoft found that the Z-code Mixture of Experts models improved translations across languages, with an average gain of 4%.

New Azure OpenAI Service combines access to powerful GPT-3 language models with Azure’s enterprise capabilities
Article's Summary:
Since OpenAI, an AI research and deployment company, introduced its groundbreaking GPT-3 natural language model platform last year, users have discovered countless things that these AI models can do with their powerful and comprehensive understanding of language. At its Ignite conference today, Microsoft announced it will help its customers uncover these kinds of experiences with the new Azure OpenAI Service, which allows access to OpenAI’s API through the Azure platform and will initially be available by invite only. The new Azure Cognitive Service will give customers access to OpenAI’s powerful GPT-3 models, along with security, reliability, compliance, data privacy and other enterprise-grade capabilities that are built into Microsoft Azure. As more people are able to access and use them, the models become even more capable, said OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.
