Microsoft's deal with OpenAI grants Microsoft access to OpenAI's technology --- at least until AGI arrives
- mullingitover 3y agoThis is like a spacecraft research nonprofit working on faster than light travel promising Boeing 100% of the rights to any of their technology that's sub-light speed. I give even odds that they'll never achieve "AGI," or when it happens it'll be an incremental gain made by simply wiring existing technologies together that'll be obvious to any engineer competent in the field and thus easily duplicated.
- bagels 3y agoHow is it decided that "AGI" has arrived?
- quotemstr 3y agoThe OpenAI nonprofit board does, AIUI. That means OpenAI can, in theory, cut off everything from this day forward (by declaring GPT-5 or whatever as "AGI"), but they can't cut off access to GPT-4.
