Microsoft Eyes Bigger Role in OpenAI's For-Profit Transition
Last updated:
Microsoft is paving the way to expand its influence over OpenAI as the latter shifts from non-profit to for-profit status. With a hefty $14 billion investment already in play, Microsoft is negotiating for a significant equity stake, advised by Morgan Stanley, while Goldman Sachs assists OpenAI. As OpenAI's valuation soars to $157 billion, the firm braces for a financially challenging future, projecting annual computing costs that could soar to $37.5 billion by 2029. This shift raises questions about balancing societal benefits with profit motives, with potential tensions over hiring practices and software protocols looming.
