What is Microsoft reportedly willing to trade for greater access to OpenAI’s tech?
According to the Financial Times, Microsoft is in complex negotiations with OpenAI—the AI startup behind ChatGPT and one of Microsoft’s biggest bets in recent years.
At the heart of these talks is a potential deal: Microsoft could give up part of its stake in OpenAI in exchange for deeper access to the company’s cutting-edge technologies.
The situation is complicated by rising tensions. As OpenAI expands its corporate business and builds out its ambitious infrastructure project, codenamed Stargate, it increasingly finds itself competing with Microsoft, not just collaborating.
This marks a dramatic shift in the relationship between the two tech giants—one that could reshape the future of AI partnerships and platform dominance.
