Nvidia nears deal to invest $20 billion in OpenAI funding round: Reuters
Nvidia's nearly $20 billion investment would be its largest in OpenAI, supporting the startup's $100 billion funding target to fuel AI growth and future plans.
- On Feb 3 , Nvidia is nearing a deal to invest US$20 billion in OpenAI, with sources saying the contribution is close to completion though not final.
- OpenAI is seeking up to US$100 billion in new financing, with much expected from large technology companies including Amazon.com and SoftBank Group, while a September plan had stalled after internal doubts, The Wall Street Journal reported.
- On Jan 31, Jensen Huang told reporters he would participate in the next round and said it could be Nvidia’s largest investment, adding on Tuesday that plans remained on track.
- The deal, if completed, sits amid interest from other major tech investors as Amazon.com has discussed investing up to US$50 billion and SoftBank Group up to US$30 billion, while the chief executives of Nvidia and OpenAI have publicly signalled ongoing commitment.
- Recent reports have put the Nvidia–OpenAI relationship under new scrutiny as OpenAI has been reported unsatisfied with Nvidia’s latest artificial-intelligence chips and sought alternatives since last year.
