マイクロソフトとOpenAIの修正合意は「全体的にプラス」だとウェドブッシュ証券が述べる

By

-- マイクロソフト（MSFT）とOpenAIの契約改定は、マイクロソフトがOpenAIの技術に対する6年間の知的財産権を確保し、OpenAIの株式の相当部分を維持できるため、「全体としてプラス」であると、ウェドブッシュ証券は月曜日のレポートで述べた。 同証券によると、この契約は、マイクロソフトがOpenAIからの技術的独立性を確立しつつ、アシスタント「Copilot」の開発を進め、AnthropicのAIモデルを自社の365ツールに活用していく上で、重要な節目となる。 レポートによると、新契約の下で、マイクロソフトは2032年までOpenAIの技術ライセンスを保有し続けるが、ライセンスはもはや独占的なものではない。マイクロソフトはOpenAIへの収益分配金の支払いを停止する一方、OpenAIからマイクロソフトへの収益分配金は、総額の上限を条件として、2030年まで同じ割合で継続されるとウェドブッシュは述べている。 ウェドブッシュ証券は、今回の合意修正により、OpenAIは間近に迫った新規株式公開（IPO）に向けて「力強い前進」を遂げ、クラウド環境におけるより明確な機会を得るとともに、マイクロソフトとの当初の提携関係における障壁を軽減できると述べた。 ウェドブッシュは、マイクロソフト株の投資判断を「アウトパフォーム」に据え置き、目標株価を575ドルとした。
