According to the US media The Information, OpenAI CEO Altman wants to transform the artificial intelligence development company managed by a non-profit organization into a for-profit company, and the biggest obstacle he faces is Microsoft. The company has great influence in this process because it has committed more than $13 billion to OpenAI. Since October last year, the two companies have been negotiating potential changes to the structure of OpenAI, and the discussion has focused on four aspects: Microsoft's equity in the for-profit entity; whether Microsoft will continue to be OpenAI's exclusive cloud service provider; how long Microsoft will maintain the right to use OpenAI's intellectual property to meet its product needs; and whether Microsoft will continue to extract 20% of OpenAI's revenue. This information comes from people familiar with the discussion with Altman. It is not clear when OpenAI and Microsoft plan to complete this process, but the two sides are moving forward quickly and are under time pressure: if OpenAI fails to complete the transformation within the next two years, investors in recent financing can recover their money, as well as 9% interest-a total of about $7.2 billion. Company leaders have told employees that OpenAI hopes to buy back some of their shares after the profitable transformation, so employees currently have good reason to want to complete this change as soon as possible.
