Microsoft is sued over $242 Million for Cortana Patent Infringement

Looks like the tech industry is getting more interesting. Recently, Microsoft was ordered to pay $242 million in damages to IPA Technologies for allegedly infringing the company's patent on the Cortana virtual assistant. The suit was filed in 2018 but only went to trial a week ago.

In addition, The IPA patent involves a voice recognition system to give instructions to a virtual assistant. Microsoft has already filed an appeal because it believes Cortana does not infringe any patents owned by the IPA. In addition to Microsoft, the IPA also filed suit against Google and Amazon. Their case against Amazon has already been dismissed while the case against Google has yet to be heard.

Moreover, Microsoft no longer uses Cortana as a virtual assistant in Windows or a smartphone application with support ending in 2023. Bing has replaced it with the Copilot AI system. We have yet to confirm other details on the subject. Hopefully, everything will be resolved soon.What are your thoughts about this news? Stay tuned for more news and updates like this at TechNave!
