Inflection 3.0
Inflection AIInflection AI's foundation model powering the Pi assistant and the company's enterprise 'Inflection for Enterprise' tier. After key staff (Mustafa Suleyman et al.) departed to Microsoft AI in March 2024, Inflection pivoted to enterprise. Inflection 3.0 is the current flagship, powered by Intel Gaudi 3 with on-prem or AI Cloud deployment options; no new generation publicly confirmed by May 2026. Notable as a case study in foundation-model market concentration dynamics: pace has slowed dramatically post-pivot.
Inflection 3.0 (Pi 3.0 + Productivity 3.0), released 7 Oct 2024 with 'Inflection for Enterprise'. Proprietary/API + enterprise-licensed; no open weights; fine-tuned models are customer-exclusive. Frontier research team absorbed by Microsoft (2024-25); pivot to B2B. EXISTENCE now confirmed via PRIMARY sources (Intel Newsroom press release + BusinessWire 'Introducing Inflection for Enterprise', 7 Oct 2024), not aggregator-only. >12mo old; scored best-effort, flagged stale.
