New York (CNN Business) Tesla ( TSLA ) CEO Elon Musk doesn't seem to approve of Microsoft's deal with OpenAI — the research company he co-founded in 2015. OpenAI is essentially captured by Microsoft," Musk tweeted on Thursday. OpenAI, which was initially launched as a non-profit research company, was co-founded by Musk and included a heavy-hitting list of donors including Peter Thiel and Microsoft. It's unclear how much exclusivity OpenAI's licensing deal will grant Microsoft with GPT-3. Gates holds an opposing view to Musk — who has made warnings of a future when he says the global race for AI technology will result in World War III.
