The pricing of the new models on Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI service will be on par with OpenAI.
Microsoft on Tuesday announced that it has partnered with OpenAI to offer various generative AI models such as the updated GPT-3.5 Turbo, DALL-E 3, Whisper 3 and the latest GPT-4 Turbo model with support for structured JSON formatting will be made available for developers by the end of 2023 via Azure OpenAI service.
It was great to join @sama at OpenAI’s first ever DevDay yesterday. We are committed to ensuring OpenAI has the best possible systems to train the most advanced models for our mutual customers. https://t.co/Id55dMLMzU

Microsoft Chairman and CEO Satya Nadella at the OpenAI DevDay said “Our job number one is to build the best systems, so you can build the best models and deliver those to developers.” “Our mission is to empower every person and every organisation on the planet to achieve more. And to me, ultimately, AI is only going to be useful if it truly does empower…it’s about being able to get the benefits of AI broadly disseminated to everyone,” Nadella added.
Sam Altman, OpenAI’s CEO stated “I think we have the best partnership in tech,” while talking about Microsoft and OpenAI’s partnership.
In a blog post, Microsoft also emphasised the fact that the lower-priced models, announced at DevDay will make these models “more accessible and increase their utilisation.” And also reiterated the fact that the token pricing of these new models on the Azure OpenAI service will be on par with OpenAI’s pricing.
Similarly, those who attended OpenAI DevDay in person will also get access to GitHub Enterprise for free for three months, which includes new generative AI capabilities such as assisted code completion and development.
At OpenAI DevDay, Sam announced the company’s most capable generative AI model — GPT-4 Turbo and GPT-4 Turbo vision, which now supports up to 128K context windows and also comes with up-to-date knowledge of up to April 2023. Not just that, when compared to GPT-4, the GPT-4 Turbo is cheaper to run for developers, and will soon be available for ChatGPT Plus subscribers.
