Microsoft has reduced its sales growth targets for AI agent products after many sales reps failed to meet quotas. The company is struggling to deliver on promises made about automating complex tasks, leading to adjustments in their sales goals for AI applications like Foundry.

Anthropic and Microsoft have expanded their partnership, making Claude Sonnet 4.5, Haiku 4.5, and Opus 4.1 available in public preview on Microsoft Foundry. This integration allows developers to use Claude for coding, agent development, and office tasks while streamlining procurement processes within the Microsoft ecosystem.
