This is just so they can announce at some point in the future that they've achieved AGI to the tune of billions in the stock market.

Except that it isn't AGI.

But OpenAI has received more than $13 billion in funding from Microsoft over the years, and that money has come with a strange contractual agreement that OpenAI would stop allowing Microsoft to use any new technology it develops after AGI is achieved

The real motivation is to not be beholden to Microsoft
