OpenAI가 기업가치 1조 2,500억 달러로 평가받는 이번 라운드에서 1차 투자금 110억 달러를 확보했으며, 총 투자 규모는 최대 200억 달러에 이를 수 있습니다. 회사는 추가 자금 조달을 위해 부유한 개인 투자자들을 대상으로 접촉을 확대하고 있습니다.

OpenAI has received roughly $11 billion in new funding, the first tranche of a round that values the company at $1.25 trillion. Bloomberg reports that the money was wired on Friday. The full round could grow to $20 billion, with the remainder expected in the coming weeks. OpenAI originally sought $30 billion at a $1.4 trillion valuation but scaled back after an AI-sector selloff. Anthropic's valuation is also under pressure ahead of its planned IPO.

Investors include Coatue Management, T. Rowe Price, SoftBank, Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund, Andreessen Horowitz, and a consortium from the United Arab Emirates. OpenAI is also working with investment banks to bring in wealthy individual investors. If OpenAI is already courting dentists to raise more capital, the AI funding market is either tapped out or too concentrated on OpenAI and Anthropic. Meanwhile, Anthropic's strong business-to-business success with Claude Code is making OpenAI's position harder.
