OpenAI's recent funding round of $6.6 billion at a $157 billion valuation indicates robust investor confidence in AI, which is part of a broader trend.
AI comprised 41% of U.S. VC deals in the first half of 2024, showcasing sustained investor interest in AI innovation and growth despite economic challenges.
The emergence of AI unicorns increased by 22.9% last year, marking AI as a rare sector with significant growth amidst a challenging fundraising climate.
