OpenAI and Oracle are partnering to let Oracle Cloud customers use existing credits for OpenAI models. Oracle Marketplace now sells access to OpenAI models, Codex, and ChatGPT Work. The offerings are currently available only in the United States. More regions will be added soon. Availability will begin in the coming weeks. Customers can apply eligible Oracle Universal Credits toward these offerings. The partnership aims to align AI adoption with existing cloud investments.
