OpenAI's Valuation Tops $1 Trillion as Rival Anthropic Raises $13 Billion

OpenAI's valuation skyrocketed to a trillion dollars in March 2025, following a $40 billion share acquisition by an unidentified investor. The company plans massive infrastructure spending, while rival Anthropic secured $13 billion at a $183 billion valuation.

OpenAI's recent financial activities have sparked interest. It aims to invest hundreds of billions in computing infrastructure. Meanwhile, Nvidia's potential $100 billion investment has raised concerns about a generative AI bubble.

OpenAI's reported $6.6 billion share sale could make it the world's most valuable startup, surpassing SpaceX's $400 billion valuation. If confirmed, the sale involves SoftBank, Thrive Capital, Dragoneer, and MGX. In the first half of 2025, OpenAI generated around $4.3 billion in revenue.

OpenAI's valuation and investment plans indicate its ambition in the AI sector. The potential share sale, if confirmed, would cement its status as the world's most valuable startup. Meanwhile, rival Anthropic's recent funding round signals a competitive landscape.
