Microsoft is granted exclusive rights to use OpenAI's GPT-3

Microsoft and OpenAI's close relationship has taken another leap forward with the former gaining exclusive GPT-3 access. GPT-3 has been the talk of the AI town in recent months. OpenAI's innovation can help to create convincing articles and the company once deemed it too dangerous to release in a world where misinformation and fake news is already problematic. OpenAI never made GPT-3 publicly available but instead provided access to a limited number of trusted researchers. Microsoft announced today that it now has the exclusive rights to leverage GPT-3's "technical innovations to develop and deliver advanced AI solutions for our customers, as well as create new solutions that harness the amazing power of advanced natural language generation."
