Nvidia in talks to invest up to $30B in OpenAI as funding round nears $100B+

Nvidia is negotiating to invest up to $30B in OpenAI's latest funding round, up from the $20B previously reported. The investment is separate from the $100B infrastructure agreement the two companies announced in September. OpenAI's overall valuation could exceed $850B including the eventual funding, above the $830B initially expected. The first tranches are reportedly coming from Amazon (up to $50B), SoftBank ($30B), Nvidia, and Microsoft, with VC firms and sovereign wealth funds expected to close later.
