Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman came on Decoder this week to talk about the path to superintelligence and the companyâs ever-evolving relationship with OpenAI. When asked whether Microsoft was using Build to flex its independence from OpenAI like a âfreshly single divorcĂŠe,â Suleyman had this to say:
Definitely not. No, not at all. Look, I mean, obviously thatâs a cool headline and a fun phrase. But the reality is that we are in partnership with OpenAI for years and years to come⌠So naturally, thatâs going to continue. And so I think thatâs just a natural course of these sorts of partnerships.
I donât think itâs anything untoward or surprising. I think OpenAI is very understanding and supportive of that. I mean, theyâve obviously been an incredibly fast-growing company, and they understand that we have to pursue our own agenda as well.
