OpenAI saw its valuation soar to $157 billion after a $6.6 billion funding round, led by Thrive Capital and involving major investors like Microsoft and Nvidia.
Since November 2023, ChatGPT's user base has more than doubled, reaching over 250 million, indicating rapid growth and high demand for AI tools.
OpenAI aims to use the new funds to develop further AI tools and research, even as it anticipates significant losses of $5 billion this year.
Recent high-level exits at OpenAI, including its CTO and chief research officer, suggest shifting dynamics within the company as it navigates rapid growth.
