OpenAI's models arrive on AWS after Microsoft exclusivity ends
OpenAI is making its generative AI models available on Amazon's cloud platform, a day after the company ended its exclusive partnership with Microsoft. The move makes OpenAI's technology accessible on Amazon Web Services for the first time.
