      Jai Hind. Investors could soon find out that they will have to deal with Money not enough syndrome first before getting to its nest of golden eggs.

    Their desire to get monopoly on AI is crazy/ 45 billion USD for private shares selling is a lot but they will make a lot of M&A, gross profits will jump and in right time after 1,5-2 years they will make 1 trillion USD+ IPO 👨‍🌾🐉

      don’t worry there is already XAi, google, meta, Anthropic, deepseek etc.. all of them are pretty big and well funded so there is not much to worry about that.

    They don’t have anything… Google AI is much better

    Wow, investors seems not to be aware that OpenAI is a risky investment. Integration is the decisive factor for a successful AI usage. And here companies like Google, Alibaba, Amazon, Facebook and Microsoft (with their upcoming own AIs) have a clear advantage over OpenAI. Google will make it and Chinese providers also. Microsoft and Facebook have the deep pockets to fund their own AI experiments for a while. Amazon will “go into bed” with who ever is a good match. So what OpenAI can do when Microsoft drives away from the partnership with them? OpenAI will drown in cost and has lost a lot of crucial talent.

    OpenAI has gotta lower their costs. By a ton.

    I wish them to be profitable.

    Jai Hind. Other AI contenders like DeepSeek, Google, Facebook, Alibaba, Tencent etc. will have to make do with little or no external funding. However, the next entrant into the Mag 8 will first have to consume more rounds of humongous investor funding to maintain its Hegemonic position at the Pinnacle of foundation AI models.

Bessemer Venture Partners has raised $5.75 billion in fresh capital, its largest fundraise ever, including $4 billion dedicated to growth-stage investments as AI companies raise larger rounds and remain private for longer. Partner Sameer Dholakia discusses why the firm sees a “special moment” for investing across AI applications and physical AI, its early bet on Anthropic, and why he believes intelligence could ultimately become an economic input comparable to oil.
