OpenAI is Aiming for $500 Billion Valuation: Source

OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, is in preliminary talks about a stock offering that could enable employees to cash out and may value the company at approximately $500 billion, a source familiar with the situation said.

Existing investors, like Thrive Capital, are also in discussions to participate, the source added, who asked to remain anonymous due to privacy concerns.

This $500 billion valuation represents a substantial rise from the company's current valuation of $300 billion, supported by Microsoft.

The potential share sale would serve as a financial incentive for employees, especially as tech giants like Meta compete fiercely for AI talent by offering attractive compensation packages.

Thrive Capital declined to comment. Bloomberg was the first to report the potential sale on Tuesday.
