This makes me feel that the extremely short AGI timelines might be less likely.

To sign this deal today, presumably you wouldn’t bother if AGI is just around the corner?

Maybe I’m reading too much into it.

OpenAI wants to be free from MS. The cost is 27% of ownership, which is about $135B currently, plus IP access until 2032. Considered MS invested about $10B initially, that’s a big concession on the part of OpenAI.

OpenAI’s Jakob Pachocki said on a call today that he expects that AI is “less than a decade away from superintelligence”
