They did not give up control to Microsoft.
If that were true, the Apple deal (which Microsoft opposed) would not have just happened.
- xcv123 2y agoHaving Apple dependent on and paying for Microsoft infrastructure is a win for Microsoft. Of course the deal benefits Microsoft as much as Apple. Microsoft needs Apple as a strong competitor. Otherwise they will be declared a monopoly and broken up by regulators. Microsoft was smart to use OpenAI as a proxy for this deal.
- qarl 2y ago> Having Apple dependent on and paying for Microsoft infrastructure is a win for Microsoft. LOL! I would love to see your evidence that Apple's new AI offering will be running on Microsoft's infrastructure.
- xcv123 2y agoIt was a public announcement. https://openai.com/index/openai-and-apple-announce-partnership/ https://openai.com/index/openai-and-apple-announce-partnersh... OpenAI models run on Azure infrastructure. Apple is just a client and will be paying Microsoft via OpenAI to run it. Apple also has their own models running on their own infrastructure. I'm not saying that Microsoft or OpenAI has anything to do with that.
- qarl 2y agoThat's SO WEIRD. When I load that page, I see no mention of Azure.

- qarl 2y agoOpenAI's current infrastructure runs on Azure. Do you have any evidence that their new Apple services will run on Azure?
- qarl 2y ago> To answer your question below: Apple is a customer of OpenAI. They are using OpenAI as a service. The OpenAI models won't be running in Apple data centers. Don't move the goalposts. I asked you if you had evidence that it will run on Azure.
- qarl 2y agoIt's impossible to discuss this with you as you keep changing your comment. I never once implied it would run on Apple servers. You're putting words in my mouth. I am asking if you have any direct evidence that they'll be running on Azure. The fact that you keep dodging that question tells me you don't.
- qarl 2y ago> Holy shit you are a fucking moron. I posted direct links to everything. Holy shit you are a fucking moron! None of your links say anything about Apple's new services. I think it's safe to say we're not going to find common ground here. You have a nice day.
- xcv123 2y agoSorry for the shit language but I got tired of you not understanding anything. Apple's services do not run on Azure. Apple's services run on Apple infrastructure. OpenAI services run on Azure Apple is a new partner of OpenAI. Apple will use OpenAI services which run on Azure. Hopefully that makes sense. It is not that complicated.
