  Microsoft Corp. will no longer pay revenue to OpenAI and said its partnership with the leading artificial intelligence firm will not be exclusive going forward.
What does this mean that Microsoft will no longer pay revenue to OpenAI? How did the original deal work?

Wonder if this means Microsoft is actually going to be deploying Claude Code internally for usage?

That might help fix some of the bugs in Teams... :)

It's unclear. That was never disclosed. It's similarly unclear what it means that they will no longer pay revenue share to OpenAI. Do they get the models for free now? How does OpenAI make money from the models hosted on Azure if not via revenue share?

They were paying them 20% of the revenue from the hosted OpenAI products I believe?
