OpenAI reportedly raises an additional $11 billion at a $1.25 trillion valuation

OpenAI has reportedly raised $11 billion so far in a new funding round that values the AI lab at $1.25 trillion.

Bloomberg reported on the new funding on Friday, citing sources familiar with the matter. The $11 billion is part of a larger funding round that hasn’t closed yet, according to the outlet. The round is expected to close in the coming weeks and could total about $20 billion, a source told Bloomberg.

In late September, Bloomberg reported that OpenAI was looking to raise $30 billion in the upcoming round. The current figures fall well short of that target.

TechCrunch has reached out to OpenAI for comment and will update this story if it responds.
