Elon Musk is in a legal fight with Microsoft but made a friendly virtual appearance at the software giant's annual technology showcase to reveal that his Grok artificial intelligence chatbot will now be hosted on Microsoft's data centers.

Elon Musk-led xAI’s flagship GROK 3 models are now available for free on Microsoft Azure throughout June. The Azure AI foundry hosts other Microsoft partners as well, including OpenAI, Meta, Hugging Face, and more.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates recently called out Tesla CEO Elon Musk over spending cuts enacted by Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), specifically its decision to shut down the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
