Building a new class of safer, more capable AI systems we call Humanist Superintelligence: AI that is always aligned, controllable, and in service of humanity.
Seven new models launching at Build: let’s go!
Reasoning. Code. Image. Transcribe. Voice.
Built from scratch on a clean data lineage, designed for efficiency, working seamlessly as a family of models

What does it take to build coding models that meet developers where they work? Go behind the scenes with Microsoft AI to explore how we build and optimize code. From training and evaluation to performance, safety, and real-world developer feedback. msft.it/6012viG1u
MAI-Code-1-Flash is now rolled out to 100% of GitHub Copilot Free, Education, Pro, Pro , and Max subscribers in VS Code. Copilot CLI roll out and Enterprise/Business preview on its way. Give it a try and let us know what you think!
Let’s go a bit deeper into Frontier Tuning launched at Build and see a live demo!
Frontier Tuning is how we enable you to develop custom AI by building a reinforcement learning environment (RLE) to hill climb on your data, tools, and knowledge. Think of it like a training gym for your AI.

I have been crushing through some code including advanced research, planning, and implementation with MAI-Code-1-Flash and I am loving it.
Token usage is efficient and cost is fantastic. Flipping bugs for around 20 to 30 AIC each.
Fun fact – the images announcing MAI-Image-2.5 - our image generation and editing model were generated by the model itself!
Strong photo-realism, precise edits, quality down to the fine details.

ALT A graphic displaying Microsoft AI's 7 new models. The top row features floral and abstract designs alongside names: MAI Image-2.5, MAI Image-2.5-Flash, MAI Transcribe-1.5, and MAI Thinking-1. Below, 3 models labeled MAI Voice-2, MAI Voice-2-Flash, and MAI Code-1-Flash are shown with colorful artistic visuals.
MAI-Voice-2 MAI-Voice-2-Flash.
Our most expressive text-to-speech model yet:
- 15 languages with emotion control (excited, whispered, embarrassed and more)
- Stable speaker identity across long-form content
- Code-switching for Hindi-English and Spanish-English
- Preferred over MAI-Voice-1 in 72% of evals
MAI-Voice-2-Flash coming soon, built for real-time agents and high-volume workloads where latency and cost matter most.
