I'd really, really appreciate it.

And I hope you have a fantastic rest of your day.

OpenAI is closing in on one of the largest private fundraising rounds in tech history.

It's absolutely massive.

Welcome to the podcast.

I'm your host, Jaden Schaefer.

Today, we're talking about some reports coming out of Bloomberg in relation to a $100 billion round of funding that OpenAI is going to be doing, putting them at an $850 billion valuation.

This is absolutely astronomical.

And also, there's a bunch of...

awkward moments happening in India between Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amadeo, who've been in this death feud for the last, I would say, couple months based off of Anthropic putting out these kind of attack ads at the Super Bowl on OpenAI and Sam Altman firing back.

And then they had a very awkward moment where they're supposed to be holding hands in India.

Things did not go according to plan.

I want to break that down and also talk about some interesting analytics coming out of OpenAI in

in regards to their users.

So it's basically a whole bunch of AI news for OpenAI today.

Before we get into all of that, if you want to try the latest models from OpenAI or Anthropic or Grok or Gemini or 11 Labs for Audio and get them all in one place, I'd love for you to check out my platform, AIbox.ai.
