Read our privacy policy Microsoft has an exclusive license to use OpenAI’s GPT-3 artificial intelligence language generator, the company has announced. The previous iteration of GPT-3, called GPT-2, made headlines for being “too dangerous to release” and has numerous capabilities, including designing websites, prescribing medication, answering questions, and penning articles. “The scope of commercial and creative potential that can be unlocked through the GPT-3 model is profound, with genuinely novel capabilities – most of which we haven’t even imagined yet”, wrote Kevin Scott, Microsoft’s executive vice president and chief technology officer. Microsoft and OpenAI already have existing relationships; Microsoft Azure is the cloud computing service on which OpenAI trains its artificial-intelligence programs, and last year Microsoft became OpenAI’s exclusive cloud provider.
