Soggy bottom. Skim the top, leave the rest on the tray.
Summary
OpenAI is reportedly developing a new business model where it would take a percentage share of revenue from customer innovations and discoveries achieved using its AI systems. The model, still under internal discussion, would apply to 'AI-Aided Discoveries' - innovative outputs accelerated by enterprises or research institutions using OpenAI's large models like GPT and Operator agents. This approach has attracted attention in high-value R&D fields including technology, pharmaceuticals, and materials science, representing a significant shift in how AI companies monetize their technology beyond traditional licensing or usage fees.
