OpenAI is aiming to raise as much as $100 billion in a new fundraising round that could value the startup at $830 billion. The Wall Street Journal reported that the company targeted a completion date by the end of the first quarter of 2026 to fund its AI model development and cash burn projected to reach $200 billion through 2030. SoftBank previously agreed to invest $30 billion in the firm, while Disney recently provided a $1 billion investment as part of a year-end dealmaking spree.
