Microsoft and OpenAI are currently engaged in intense negotiations to revise the terms of their multi-billion dollar agreement. This was reported by TechCrunch, citing Financial Times.

OpenAI, which has received $13 billion in investments from Microsoft, is planning to restructure and transition into a public corporation format, which could pave the way for an initial public offering.

A critical issue is Microsoft's share in OpenAI's new business structure. Sources indicate that the company is willing to relinquish part of its stake in exchange for enhanced access to OpenAI's technologies after 2030. This is crucial for Microsoft as it integrates OpenAI's developments into its products, specifically Copilot.

The negotiations are complicated by the increasing competition between companies, as OpenAI actively develops its corporate business and the ambitious infrastructure project Stargate. The final terms of the agreement have yet to be determined, but its outcome could significantly impact the collaboration between the companies.
