There'll be a significant lawsuit if OpenAI tries such a declaration without MS on board with it.
But i'm not sure how much OpenAI is even investing toward AGI. LLM is their bread and butter and I don't know many experts that think LLM is the path to AGI.
The fact that OpenAI have waived the threat of using the clause implies to me that they've defined it relatively loosely... or just that they're really stupid, which may also be possible.
I did a little bit of looking and couldn't find a figure on how much OpenAI spends on AGI compared to GenAI research, but in looking, I found this interesting:

Which begins with the following:
Which seems like a shady placement of two unrelated things next to one another. Makes me wonder if texts like this have the goal of selling GenAI as AGI one day.
