Microsoft owns 49% of OpenAI. They’re not going to let them jump in bed with someone else.

They own that in a subsidiary of the non-profit, not the controlling non-profit itself.

Who owns the 51%? Seems like if it’s the non-profit, MSFT can make any demands and suggestions they want, and the 51% perfect can say “that’s nice” and do what they want. Which is probably why MSFT owns _only_ 49%?

And the non-profit board is the majority stakeholder, so MS doesn’t have a day

Yeah, I definitely agree. I was just responding to the user who was saying that without Microsoft, OpenAI cannot survive.
