Microsoft supports OpenAI's transition to a for-profit company after a dispute over terms.

Microsoft and OpenAI have signed a non-binding deal allowing OpenAI to become a for-profit company. This follows a period of dispute over partnership terms, including profit-sharing and access to technology. Microsoft, OpenAI's largest investor with over $13 billion invested, supports the move. OpenAI aims to expand partnerships for cloud computing and complete the restructuring by year-end, pending regulatory approval.
