OpenAI breaks off Microsoft exclusivity, Amazon CEO says OpenAI models coming to AWS soon

Microsoft is losing exclusive access to OpenAI’s technology, clearing the way for the ChatGPT creator to sell its products across rival cloud platforms in a sweeping change to one of the artificial intelligence era’s most consequential alliances.

The reworked tie-up, announced ‌jointly by the companies on Monday, ⁠retains Microsoft ⁠as OpenAI’s primary cloud partner with a license to the startup’s intellectual property through 2032. It also paves the way for OpenAI to take its models to Amazon.com’s cloud unit, without any technical workarounds.
