Nvidia Reconsiders OpenAI Bet Amid Internal Concerns

Nvidia’s talks to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI have stalled, according to the Wall Street Journal, as some inside Nvidia express concerns about the deal. The plan would have backed OpenAI’s AI infrastructure with Nvidia hardware, aiming for roughly 10 gigawatts of compute to support large data-center build-out. OpenAI has been seeking up to $100 billion in a funding round, with Amazon reportedly in talks to invest as much as $50 billion. Nvidia says it remains OpenAI’s preferred partner but did not comment on the current negotiations, and OpenAI did not immediately respond. The two sides are now weighing alternatives, including Nvidia investing tens of billions as part of the current round.
