The rumors that OpenAI deal with MS would give them everything till they got to AGI... A perpetual license to all new development.
All the "Safety people" have left the OpenAi building. Even musk isnt talking about safety any more.
I think the bet was that if you fed an LLM enough, got it big enough it would hit a tipping point, and become AGI, or sentient or sapient. That lines up nicely with the MS terms, and MS's on paper.
I think they figured out that the math doesn't work that way (and never was going to). A prediction of the next token being better isnt intelligence any more than weather prediction will become weather.
Look at the google engineer who thought they had an AI locked up in the basement... https://www.theverge.com/2022/6/13/23165535/google-suspends-...
