Microsoft was once the exclusive provider of data center infrastructure for OpenAI to train and run its AI models. No longer. <\/p>\n

Coinciding with the announcement of Stargate, OpenAI\u2019s massive new AI infrastructure deal with SoftBank, Oracle, and others, Microsoft says it has signed a new agreement with OpenAI that gives it \u201cright of first refusal\u201d on new OpenAI cloud computing capacity. That means that, going forward, Microsoft gets first choice over whether to host OpenAI\u2019s AI workloads in the cloud \u2014 but if Microsoft can\u2019t meet its needs, OpenAI can go to a rival cloud provider.<\/p>\n

\u201cOpenAI recently made a new, large Azure commitment that will continue to support all OpenAI products as well as training,\u201d Microsoft said in a blog post<\/a>. \u201cTo further support OpenAI, Microsoft has app<\/a>roved OpenAI\u2019s ability to build additional capacity, primarily for research and training of models.\u201d<\/p>\n

OpenAI has\u00a0blamed\u00a0a lack of available compute for delaying its products, and compute capacity has reportedly become a source of\u00a0tension<\/a>\u00a0between the AI company and Microsoft, its close collaborator and major investor. In June, Microsoft, under shareholder pressure<\/a>, permitted OpenAI to ink a deal<\/a> with Oracle for additional capacity.<\/p>\n

In the blost post, Microsoft reiterated that \u201ckey elements\u201d of its longstanding partnership with OpenAI remain in place through 2030, including its access to OpenAI\u2019s IP, revenue sharing arrangements, and exclusivity on OpenAI\u2019s APIs.<\/p>\n

That assumes, of course, that OpenAI doesn\u2019t achieve artificial general<\/a> intelligence (AGI) under the two companies\u2019\u00a0agreed-upon definition\u00a0before then. When OpenAI develops AI systems that can generate at least $100 billion in profits, Microsoft will lose access to the company\u2019s technology<\/a>, according to a reported agreement between the firms.<\/p>\n

OpenAI is said to be considering<\/a> nullifying the agreement in a possible bid to secure more Microsoft funding.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe OpenAI API is exclusive to Azure, runs on Azure and is also available through the Azure OpenAI Service,\u201d the blog post reads. \u201cThis agreement means customers benefit from having access to leading models on Microsoft platforms and direct from OpenAI.\u201d<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve reached out to OpenAI and Microsoft for more information and will update this post if we hear back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
