OpenAI funded $40 billion - Close to SpaceX record

OpenAI funded $40 billion - Close to SpaceX record

Why would a company founded as a nonprofit now require $40 billion in private capital—more than triple the previous record—and what exactly is it planning to do with all that money, especially when half of it depends on a complete structural overhaul that’s already sparked lawsuits and regulatory scrutiny? That’s not just a casual curiosity; it’s the kind of question that reveals everything about the current state of artificial intelligence, the people funding it, and the unstable marriage between innovation and corporate ambition. When OpenAI announced Monday that it had closed the largest private tech funding round in history, the sheer size of the deal raised more eyebrows than champagne glasses. The numbers are loud, the conditions are loaded, and the implications are tangled in politics, profits, and power plays from some of the wealthiest forces in tech.
