#6The original "AGI" agreement was always a bit suspect and open to wild interpretations.
I think this is good for OpenAI. They're no longer stuck with just Microsoft. It was an advantage that Anthropic can work with anyone they like but OpenAI couldn't.

#7Microsoft Corp. will no longer pay revenue to OpenAI and said its partnership with the leading artificial intelligence firm will not be exclusive going forward. What does this mean that Microsoft will no longer pay revenue to OpenAI? How did the original deal work?
They were paying them 20% of the revenue from the hosted OpenAI products I believe?

It also restricted Microsoft from "partnering" with anyone else. Wouldn't be surprised if we see another news like Amazon, Alphabet investing in Anthropic.

I don't think Microsoft ever had that restriction. They partnered with everyone already.
