The closing of the funds coincides with the company’s ongoing restructuring efforts and executive changes

OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has raised $6.6-billion from investors, which could value the company at $157-billion and cement its position as one of the most valuable private companies in the world.

Altimeter Capital, Fidelity, SoftBank, and Abu Dhabi’s state-backed investment firm MGX also participated in the round. Apple, which was in talks to invest in OpenAI, did not end up joining the funding, sources said, who requested anonymity to discuss private matters. The company is on pace to generate $3.6-billion in revenue this year on mounting losses of over $5-billion. It projects major revenue jump next year to $11.6-billion, according to sources familiar with the figures.
