Microsoft
Microsoft just unveiled Phi-4, a 14-billion-parameter language model that punches far above its weight, outperforming giants like GPT-4o and Gemini Pro 1.5 in math and reasoning tasks.

The Details:
Phi-4 beats Gemini Pro 1.5 in several math and complex reasoning benchmarks — despite being a fraction of the size.
It even outshines its teacher, GPT-4o, in graduate-level STEM Q&A and math competition problems.
Microsoft used AI-generated synthetic data — around 400 billion high-quality tokens — to train Phi-4.
The model processes up to 4,000 tokens (double the capacity of Phi-3), enabling longer and more detailed inputs.
Phi-4 is now available in a limited research preview on Azure AI Foundry, with a broader release coming to Hugging Face.
Why It Matters:
Microsoft’s Phi models challenge the “bigger is better” mantra in AI. Phi-4 proves that smarter architecture and advanced training can make small models outperform larger ones.
The future of AI? Doing more with less.
