OpenAI正在与投资者洽谈一笔上市前融资，金额至少300亿美元，估值约1.4万亿美元。彭博称，若交易落地，这将是通往IPO的过桥轮；公司3月曾以8520亿美元估值融资1220亿美元，原本有望成为今年上市前的最后一轮私募。Sam Altman已排除2026年公开上市以优先考虑AI安全；报道还称，重新聚焦编码等领域后，年化收入自7月以来增长70%，8月达到400亿美元。

OpenAI is in talks with investors to raise at least $30 billion in a pre-IPO funding round at a valuation of roughly $1.4 trillion, Bloomberg reported on Tuesday.
Investors are eager to pour more funds into the ChatGPT maker ahead of its anticipated public market debut next year. While Anthropic momentarily outpaced OpenAI at the start of the year, recent strategic refocus on key areas like coding has fueled a 70% jump in run-rate revenue since July, reaching $40 billion in August, according to the report.
The company previously raised $122 billion in March at an $852 billion valuation. That funding round was supposed to be its last private raise before an IPO, which had been, until recently, expected to take place this year. However, CEO Sam Altman has now ruled out a public debut in 2026 to prioritize AI safety first.
“I think it is unacceptable to be taking like a 10% chance of killing everybody by the end of the decade,” he recently told Fortune, in response to warnings from safety researchers about AI posing an existential risk to humanity.
The new fundraising, if it transpires, will serve as a bridge round to the IPO, according to Bloomberg.
OpenAI didn’t respond to TechCrunch’s request for comment.
