- Microsoft has signed a non -binding memorandum with Openai for its next phase
- OpenAi may want to make public after Microsoft is distanced
- Already uses Google and others to calculate the power
Microsoft and Openai have signed a non -binding agreement to restructure OpenAI in a profit company.
The details of the agreement have not been confirmed, but Openai could finally want to make public after raising capital and adopting a more conventional corporate governance model after its great success in recent years with generative.
The news occurs after large investments from Microsoft to the Chatgpt manufacturer, including $ 1 billion in 2019 and a greater multimillion -dollar investment in 2023 that later turned around $ 10 billion, about 18% of its total income for the second quarter calendar of 2023.
OpenAI to enter your next commercial phase
“Openai and Microsoft have signed a non -binding comprehension memorandum (MOU) for the next phase of our association,” Openai and Microsoft shared.
“We are actively working to finish the contractual terms in a final agreement. Together, we continue to deliver the best AI tools for all, based on our shared commitment to security.”
In previous terms, Microsoft had exclusive rights to sell Openai software through Azure and had preferential access to its technology, but this has changed since then. Today, Microsoft is no longer the only computing supplier in OpenAi. In July, we knew that Google Cloud would unite forces with OpenAi for calculation power.
Operai is also looking for a certain degree of independence by reducing third parties dependence, building its own data center as part of the Stargate project of $ 500 billion.
PakGazette The reports citing a memorandum of the president of the non -profit board of OpenAi, Bret Taylor, suggests that the non -profit arm could receive more than $ 100 billion in funds, about 20% of the valuation of $ 500 billion OpenAi search in private markets.
However, with the regulatory obstacles that are now between the change of OpenAi structure and its future, what the shaking could mean for the Chatgpt manufacturer still does not be clear.
The increase in the price of Microsoft shares reached its maximum point at 2.5% in trade after the announcement, marking the confidence of investors in their decision to free Openai from their reins.
