OpenAI fundraising ahead of Anthropic IPO

OpenAI is nearing a raise of up to $30bn at a $1.25tn pre-money valuation, led by UAE investors and Coatue, as a bridge ahead of an IPO. The FT says it cut its target from the $1.4tn it pitched earlier this month after investor resistance. Anthropic reportedly may file publicly for its IPO as early as Friday after a first-half net loss of over $80bn.
