Microsoft’s earlier agreement with OpenAI gave it intellectual property rights to OpenAI’s products and models until 2030, or until OpenAI achieved artificial general intelligence (AGI).

Microsoft said that its product and model rights now extend to 2032 and that those rights will continue until then, even if a panel of independent experts verifies a declaration by OpenAI that it has achieved AGI.
