In a surprising turn, OpenAI is reportedly in early discussions to raise a new funding round, eyeing a valuation at or above $100 billion.

This potential valuation, if realized, would position OpenAI as the second-most valuable startup in the US, trailing only SpaceX.

Despite an ongoing tender offer at a valuation of $86 billion, the company seems to be gaining renewed confidence, particularly with the return of Sam Altman.

Additionally, there are talks of OpenAI exploring funding for a new chip venture with Abu Dhabi-based G42.

This development marks a significant shift from recent uncertainties surrounding OpenAI's financial standing.
