OpenAI has raised $11 billion in a new funding round that values the company at $1.25 trillion. The round is part of a larger one potentially totaling $20 billion after an original target of $30 billion. The development comes amid market jitters in the AI sector following the US midterms and potential regulatory challenges for data centers. Rival Anthropic filed its S-1 to go public last week while OpenAI is holding off its IPO until it can make more confident claims about model safety.
