KI-Finanzierung: OpenAI sammelt laut Bericht elf Milliarden Dollar bei Investoren ein
Bloomberg zufolge wird der ChatGPT-Entwickler mit 1,25 Billionen Dollar bewertet. Wegen des Ausverkaufs bei KI-Aktien und Sorgen über hohe Kosten hat OpenAI seine Ziele gesenkt.
In a new funding round, OpenAI, the developer behind ChatGPT, reportedly raised $11 billion, according to a media report. The company was valued at $1.25 trillion during this transaction, which was completed on Friday, according to the Bloomberg news agency based on insider information. The remainder of the round, potentially reaching up to $20 billion, is expected to be finalized in the coming weeks.
Originally, OpenAI had targeted over $30 billion during a valuation of around $1.4 trillion. However, these plans were scaled back due to broader share sales in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector and concerns from investors about expenditures on AI infrastructure. Investor sentiment towards AI companies has cooled in the past month, with some investors rating the planned initial public offering (IPO) of rival Anthropic at around $1.5 trillion, down from an estimated $2 billion. OpenAI has not yet provided a statement to Reuters.
