OpenAI Plans to Revise AGI Clause with Microsoft to Boost Investments

TL;DR Summary
OpenAI is considering removing a clause that restricts Microsoft's access to its most advanced models upon achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI), in order to secure further investment. This clause, originally intended to prevent misuse of AGI, could limit Microsoft's partnership value, as the tech giant has invested over $13 billion in OpenAI. The company, led by Sam Altman, is restructuring to become a public benefit corporation, moving away from its non-profit origins, and is in discussions with investors, including Microsoft, about new terms. The restructuring aims to balance commercial interests with OpenAI's mission to benefit humanity.
