Microsoft and OpenAI Re-evaluate $13B Investment Amidst Structural Changes

Microsoft and OpenAI are reportedly in talks to renegotiate their multi-billion dollar investment agreement, as the initial terms are approaching expiration and OpenAI undergoes significant internal restructuring. According to sources cited by the Financial Times, Microsoft is considering adjusting its equity stake in OpenAI for long-term access to cutting-edge AI technologies and models beyond 2030. The move comes after Microsoft invested over $13 billion into OpenAI since 2019, solidifying its position as the company’s primary financial backer.
