At its Ignite conference, Microsoft announced the Azure OpenAI Service, offering OpenAI's GPT-3 family of models through Azure. The service combined the models with Azure's enterprise capabilities such as security, compliance, and data privacy, and initially launched invitation-only for customers with well-defined use cases. It also included content filtering and moderation features to guard against harmful use. It put OpenAI's models on sale to enterprises as a Microsoft cloud product.
