Yes, hence the MS deal (they had trouble raising money as a pure research org). Their research can be turned into a product people pay for -- they've done it! My question is: why did the engineers at OpenAI have to do that? Why couldn't they "toss it over the fence" to MS's Azure team and be happy with a revenue share, for example.
