REDMOND, Wash. — Software giant Microsoft just revealed plans to invest billions in OpenAI, tthat's drawn a tidal wave of interest, and conjecture, since its November release.

"This agreement follows our previous investments in 2019 and 2021," Microsoft's blog post reads. "It extends our ongoing collaboration across AI supercomputing and research and enables each of us to independently commercialize the resulting advanced AI technologies.

What's driving all the hubbub now is that while ChatGPT is just the latest iteration of a series of AI system releases from OpenAI, it's the first one that's been publicly available — and free.
