Nvidia, Microsoft, Amazon in Talks to Invest Up to $60 Billion in OpenAI

OpenAI is lining up huge checks from some of its biggest tech partners, as it seeks to raise up to $100 billion to fund growing demand for its AI. Nvidia, an existing investor whose chips power OpenAI’s AI models, is in talks to invest up to $30 billion, according to a person with knowledge of the situation.

Microsoft, a longstanding backer with exclusive rights to sell OpenAI models to cloud customers, is in talks to invest less than $10 billion. And Amazon, which would be a new investor, is also in talks to invest significantly more than $10 billion, potentially even more than $20 billion.
