Microsoft and OpenAI's open relationship is now official
The Register 2 months ago
Microsoft and OpenAI amended their partnership agreement to make Microsoft's license non-exclusive, eliminating the revenue share Microsoft owed OpenAI in exchange. Microsoft will no longer have exclusive access to OpenAI's models after 2032, though it remains the primary cloud partner with products shipping first on Azure. OpenAI can now contract with other cloud providers and Microsoft is developing its own competing models, indicating both companies are positioning themselves for independent futures.
