This sounds a bit like going forward (some) OpenAI APIs will also run on platforms other than Azure (AWS)?

Anyone knows more?

I guess Amazon would have a hard time justifying their investment if OpenAI remained Azure-exclusive...

This should probably change to https://openai.com/index/scaling-ai-for-everyone/ which has more details. > Today we’re announcing $110B in new investment at a $730B pre-money valuation. This includes $30B from SoftBank, $30B from NVIDIA, and $50B from Amazon.

The tweet storm has a bit more substance

e.g. it talks about running NVIDIA's systems (?) on AWS

> NVIDIA has long been one of our most important partners, and their chips are the foundation of AI computing. We are grateful for their continued trust in us, and excited to run their systems in AWS. Their upcoming generations should be great.
