"Nonsensical Benchmark Hacking": Microsoft No Longer Believes OpenAI Is Capable of Achieving AGI
Briefly

The partnership between Microsoft and OpenAI is under severe strain as OpenAI attempts to transition into a profit-driven model without Microsoft's consent. Disagreements around the concept of artificial general intelligence (AGI) fuel the tension, with OpenAI aiming for breakthroughs in this area while Microsoft remains skeptical. The current agreement states that upon achieving AGI, the collaboration would end, prompting Microsoft to seek terms that ensure ongoing access to OpenAI’s advancements. As both parties struggle to define AGI, significant uncertainty looms over the future of their partnership.
OpenAI is trying to convert into a for-profit company, but it's so far failed to secure its benefactor's approval and negotiate a new contract.
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, on the other hand, is an AGI evangelist. In fact, according to sources, Altman believes that OpenAI is on the verge of being able to declare its AI products have reached AGI levels of proficiency.
