Microsoft in conversation to lock in Openai Tech Access even after AGI success
Microsoft and Openai are once again eyeing a partnership, this time for almost a decade. While Openai wants safe use of its AI, Microsoft wants to ensure this and has a comfortable access to the GPT tool.
Listen to the story

In short
- Microsoft and Openai are re -terrifying the terms of their partnership
- The aim of the new deal is to keep Microsoft connected to Openai’s technology beyond 2030
- Openai is planning to become a public-benefit corporation with the approval of Microsoft
Microsoft and Openai are back to the conversation table. According to Bloomberg, two technical partners are having deep interactions on a new agreement, which can add well to Microsoft with the most advanced technology of OpenAI in the next decade, even though the AI Lab suddenly announced that he has achieved Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).
If you are wondering why this is such a big thing, then there is a catch here: Under their current deal, OpenIA officially announced that it has achieved AGI-this science-fi-sounding moments when machines become smart (or smarter) than humans-Microsoft loses some rights for openi cutting-easms. For a company that has made its entire copillot strategy around the OpenEE model, it is a terrible possibility.
Sources in Bloomberg say that both sides have been often found in recent weeks and can sign something within a few weeks. Openai, for its share, allegedly Microsoft wants to use its AI model “safely” ensure that the research organization goes closer to the elusive Agi Milestone. On the other hand, Microsoft aims to ensure uninterrupted access to the tools of Openai, the kind of access that enables the GPT model to integrate in various applications, from Word to Github.
The talks are also tie in a large restructuring plan. Openai is working on an infection in a publicbenefit corporation, a change that needs to move forward of Microsoft. In exchange for that green light, Microsoft is said to be looking at a large equity stake in the reviveing company, as well as an expansion for its access rights, which – as things stand – either end in 2030 or as Openai decided that AGI has arrived (which also comes first).
Certainly, the problem is that no one can agree on what anyone matters as AGI. Is this when a chatbot writes a symphony? Or can it explain the end of installation without hesitation? The ambiguity makes the entire section suspect, which is why the two companies have been rebuilding for months.
Adding another layer of the play, Openai is reportedly telling its investors that over time, Microsoft will take a small piece of its revenue, a system that may not be thrilled about the Windows manufacturer. The tension between the two is not new at all. In June, information said that the partners had already collided on this AGI clause. And now, Openai rival cloud providers, with tilt on Google, Oracle and Coreweve, to maintain computing power, the spotlight on their relations has only intensified.
The case of Elon Musk on Openai is also hanging. Tesla and SpaceX Boss, who cofked the company with Sam Altman in 2015, accused of startup from its original non -profit mission of manufacturing AI for the benefit of humanity. His grip? Openai has become very comfortable with Microsoft and has also focused on money.
For Microsoft, bets may not be too much. Azure’s Openai service, its normal AI push backbone, completely depends on access to the latest models of Openai. Losing will be like drawing a plug on Copilot overnight, a nightmare scenario in front of its earnings report on this Wednesday, where investors are sure to ask about the future of partnership.
