US Regulators Investigate Tech Giants for Antitrust Violations

According to a recent report by The New York Times, the U.S. Department of Justice and the FTC are launching separate inquiries into Microsoft, OpenAI, and Nvidia for potential antitrust violations.

Investigative Focus

  • Nvidia: DOJ to lead the investigation on Nvidia's potential antitrust violations.
  • OpenAI and Microsoft: FTC to examine the conduct of OpenAI and Microsoft.

While OpenAI's parent is a nonprofit entity, Microsoft's substantial investment in a for-profit subsidiary raises concerns over market influence and corporate strategy.
