Deep Tide TechFlow News, April 1st, OpenAI has completed a financing round of $122 billion, with a company valuation reaching $852 billion. This marks the company’s largest funding round to date, supporting its significant investments in chips, data centers, and talent. In this financing round, which had been in preparation for months, the majority of the funds came from three major tech companies. Amazon agreed to invest $50 billion in this round, while NVIDIA and SoftBank Group each invested $30 billion. A large portion of Amazon’s investment ($35 billion) is contingent on OpenAI either going public or achieving technical milestones in artificial general intelligence.

Enterprise-level sales currently account for 40% of its revenue, with expectations that this proportion will increase to 50% by the end of the year. (Jin10)
