Today, we closed our latest funding round with $122 billion in committed capital at an $852B post-money valuation. The fastest way to expand AI's benefits is to put useful intelligence in people's hands early and let access compound globally. This funding gives us resources to

a fun way to think about how big $122B is: in 2008, the US Treasury disbursed about $443.5billion through TARP to help stop the financial system from collapsing. OpenAI just raised more than a quarter of that.

OpenAI is now worth more than every S&P 500 company except 12. It has no profits. Those 12 companies have a combined age of nearly 1,000 years. OpenAI is 10. The most disruptive wealth creation event in human history is happening right now, entirely in private.

“OpenAI was the fastest technology platform to reach 10 million users, the fastest to 100 million users, and soon the fastest to 1 billion weekly active users. Within a year of launching ChatGPT, we reached $1B in revenue. By the end of 2024 we were generating $1B per quarter.

Full credit to @sama, raising $122 billion dollars in a single round is the most impressive achievement I've seen in financial markets. I don't think most people understand how difficult an undertaking that is, particularly for a firm selling itself on growth expectations.

ChatGPT estimates that there are about 14T tokens across all the books ever printed in human history. With the OpenAI API zooming past 15B tokens/min, that means the API processes the sum of all books in just under 16 hours, crazy! https://openai.com/... [image]

The last few days on audio spaces people have been speculating that OpenAI is going to go bankrupt. I told them off. When you have about a billion users you can always get more funding. With SpaceX's IPO around the corner, things are hot hot hot. Well, the AI bubble ain't

Open AI raised $122 billion - but the vast majority is from 3 of their biggest partners.

You can only justify a valuation like this if you truly believe that your platform will replace a certain portion of the labor force. The multiple on profitability is absolutely insane, even if you factor out capex on new models. Amazon, Softbank and NVIDIA are voting with thei…

Why does this feel like the months immediately prior to the WeWork IPO...?

Amazing. But, one thing I noticed...they say 15 billion tok/min. That's 0.657 quadtrillion tok/month. Google claimed they were at >1 quadtrillion tok/month last year. Google is shipping more tokens than OAI on API services? Interesting...

OpenAI just raised another $122B. It's the largest funding in Silicon Valley history, with backing from major names like Amazon, Nvidia, SoftBank, plus wealthy investors. OpenAI is ahead of an expected IPO by the end of 2026

I simply do not believe OpenAI here. $2 billion a month? — Also, based on my own reporting, there was never a single quarter in 2024 when OpenAI made $1 billion. The closest it got was Q4CY24, when it made (based on its revshare w/ Microsoft) around $839 million. — www.where…
