In a message from IT House on 3 June, at the Build 2026 Conference of Developers, Microsoft released a series of self-study AI models, including MAI-Thinking-1 for the first paragraph of the flag. It is also an important step in the development of models by Microsoft.
According to Microsoft, MAI-Thinking-1 is a medium-sized model with 35 billion active parameters that can reach industry-led model levels in key software engineering benchmarking tests. Microsoft states that the model “is based entirely on clean data and is trained from scratch without using distillation data from third-party models”.
In addition to MAI-Thinking-1, Microsoft has published several new models for different applications, covering areas such as image generation, voice transliteration, voice synthesis and programming aids. The IT homes are summarized as follows:
In the area of images, Microsoft has released MAI-Image 2.5 and its Flash version, both of which support the graphics and image editing functions.
In the area of voice transliteration, Microsoft introduced MAI-Transcribe-1.5 and indicated that the model was “five times as fast as the competitors' model”.
With regard to voice capacity, Microsoft released the MAI-Voice-2 and forecast its Flash version to be launched. Microsoft stated that the new model added support for 15 languages and provided more voice options.
For the coding scene, Microsoft launched MAI-Code-1. Microsoft indicates that the model has the "adjective efficiency optimization" feature and has been integrated into GitHub In Copilot and Vital Studio Code.
Through the launch, Microsoft further expanded the self-study MAI model family to cover multiple AI applications such as reasoning, images, voice and programming.
