What went wrong?

Memory and Chip prices went up, and Microsoft is building Data Centers. Copilot 365 only has 3% of users using the AI features. Microsoft's biggest AI customer, OpenAI is looking to use other Data Centers. Microsoft's stock took a 10% hit and lost $400B USD. Microsoft's Data Centers have high electricity bills and thus have a 0 ROI. If Microsoft doesn't get customers for its AI Data Centers, they stand to lose more than $400B USD. Investors want to see profits, not broken promises of profits.

So contrary to what the title claims, Microsoft has not actually lost $400 billion; it is simply a prediction?

But have they really invested $400 billion in data centers so far?
