According to According to the Financial Times, OpenAI is considering getting rid of a provision that would prevent Microsoft, a key partner and investor, from benefiting from the most advanced technology when OpenAI achieves artificial general intelligence (AGI).
Exactly when OpenAI creates artificial general intelligence, which the startup defines as “highly autonomous systems that outperform humans at most economically valuable tasks,” will be determined by OpenAI’s board of directors, under the current clause. Removing this requirement will enable Microsoft to continue accessing and investing in OpenAI technology after AGI is achieved.
The final decision has not yet been made by the board, according to the Financial Times.
This provision was intended to prevent AGI from being misused, assuming it eventually arrives in some form, for commercial gain. Ownership of the technology will be turned over to the non-profit OpenAI’s board of directors, and artificial general intelligence (AGI) will be excluded from all of OpenAI’s licensing agreements.
But OpenAI is under Huge pressure To raise capital to continue research and development.
