According to The New York Times, the FTC and DOJ are teaming up to open antitrust probes into Nvidia, Microsoft, and OpenAI.
The Federal Trade Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice have decided to split up their responsibilities in the upcoming antitrust investigations of Nvidia, Microsoft, and OpenAI, according to a recent report from The New York Times. The report explains that federal regulators are currently finalizing a deal which will allow them to open antitrust probes into 'the dominant roles' these companies play in the AI industry.
Microsoft tantalized regulators when it invested billions of dollars into OpenAI and reportedly acquired a 49% ownership stake in the company. The Times reports that Microsoft specifically structured this deal to avoid scrutiny from regulators, but having such significant influence over one of the AI industry's biggest players while also integrating the company's technology deeply into its own products and services attracted their attention anyway.
