OpenAI's annualized revenue is reportedly $50B, not $70B: the company told investors revenue was "approaching $50B" at the end of September, and the $70B figure came from investors "grossing up" the number to match Anthropic. OpenAI let the narrative run without correcting it, then declined to comment.
