OpenAI is a company that only ever seems to go big when it comes to matters of money, with the ChatGPT steward's latest valuation placing its estimated worth at $500 billion. That's a $200 billion jump up from its last valuation back in late March this year.
The latest valuation (via Reuters) follows on the heels of a deal in which current and former employees at the company sold about $6.6 billion worth of shares. According to an anonymous source that spoke to Reuters, these shares were sold to a number of interested investors at SoftBank, Abu Dhabi's MGX, Thrive Capital, T. Rowe Price and Dragoneer Investment Group.
