We are excited to be doing for data what Mistral and OpenAI did for LLMs. TimeGEN-1 is an optimized version of TimeGPT-1 for the Azure Cloud. With this release, practitioners can deploy their own hosted version of TimeGEN-1 and leverage its full capabilities without sharing data

Today marks another important milestone in our contribution to the field 🤯. Six months after partnering with Microsoft and discussing our alliance with Satya Nadella himself, we are proud to be the first company ever to bring a foundation time-series model to a public cloud. https://t.co/y4HDJKy1WQ
