Per Bloomberg reporters Rebecca Torrence, Ed Ludlow and Shirin Ghaffary, OpenAI's new fundraising round is expected to bring in at least $30 billion in new capital at a $1.4 trillion valuation. It's described as essentially a bridge round to cover the company's near-term capital needs rather than a stepping stone to a near-term IPO.
