OpenAI's valuation has experienced significant growth. In October 2024, the company secured a $6.6 billion funding round, elevating its valuation to $157 billion.
Subsequently, reports indicate that SoftBank is in discussions to lead a $40 billion investment round, potentially valuing OpenAI at $300 billion.
Additionally, a consortium led by Elon Musk has made a $97.4 billion bid to acquire control of OpenAI, though this offer has been rejected. These developments underscore OpenAI's rapid valuation growth and its prominent position in the artificial intelligence industry.
