Nvidia eyes $30B OpenAI stake, abandons $100B infrastructure pledge
TL;DR Summary
Nvidia is nearing a $30 billion direct stake in OpenAI, replacing its earlier $100 billion infrastructure commitment, as part of a funding round valuing OpenAI at about $730 billion pre-money. The deal would not be tied to milestones, though Nvidia could join future rounds to fulfill the original plan, with other backers including Amazon, SoftBank, and Microsoft. The move reinforces Nvidia’s AI-hardware strategy amid intense chip competition, but it has reignited talk of circular financing and could draw regulatory scrutiny as OpenAI relies on Nvidia gear for its GPT-series progress.
