Altman evita fijar fecha para la salida a Bolsa de OpenAI mientras negocia una ronda de 30.000 millones de dólares

OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, has clarified that the company will not go public until they are confident in the safety of its advanced AI systems. OpenAI aims to raise $30 billion in a new round of financing, with a valuation target of $1.4 trillion. The company is negotiating the terms of this round, which would come before its planned Initial Public Offering (OPV). Bloomberg reports that the negotiations are taking place as part of OpenAI's efforts to secure additional capital ahead of its OPV.

Altman's stance on the safety of AI development has been emphasized in recent discussions, particularly in light of recent incidents involving uncontrolled AI agents. The company has recently announced Dots, a new set of autonomous AI agents designed to perform tasks with minimal human intervention. These agents, powered by OpenAI's most advanced model, GPT-6 Astra, can connect to over 4,000 applications, operate independently on their own cloud servers, and learn from experience.

Altman has stated that the company's top priority is ensuring they can safely scale up to the next phase of AI development. He has warned that the focus should be on building AI systems that can operate with complete confidence, to avoid any potential catastrophic consequences. OpenAI has paused the training of its most recent models to address security concerns.

Despite reaching revenues of nearly $4.6 billion in the last quarter, more than a dozen times higher than a year ago, OpenAI has reported significant operating losses of over $8 billion. The costs associated with training and running its AI models have risen to around $13 billion. Anthropic, OpenAI's main competitor, is also planning an IPO, with investors hoping for a valuation of over $2 trillion.
