Microsoft and OpenAI arguably shared the best tech bromance in history. The former made a multi-billion-dollar investment to integrate the ChatGPT maker's AI smarts across its tech stack. However, recent reports suggest that their partnership is seemingly fraying.
In February, OpenAI unveiled its $500 billion Stargate project to facilitate the construction of data centers across the United States for its AI efforts. Consequently, Microsoft lost its exclusive cloud provider status as the ChatGPT maker seemingly started establishing more independence, emancipating itself from an overreliance on the tech giant for cloud computing.
