Its latest investment round indicates that the tech industry\u2019s excitement over A.I. remains strong, even amid concerns about the effectiveness and safety of the rapidly improving technology.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThis investment helps us push the frontier and make A.I. more useful in everyday life,\u201d Sam Altman, OpenAI\u2019s chief executive, said in a statement to The New York Times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The company also said that 500 million people are actively using ChatGPT each week \u2014 up from 400 million in late February \u2014 and that 20 million people are paying to use more advanced versions of the chatbot.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The new investment will be made in two parts, according to a person familiar with the deal who spoke on the condition of anonymity. An initial $10 billion will arrive immediately, with another $30 billion arriving by the end of the year, the person said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">SoftBank Group is providing 75 percent of the total, with the rest coming from other investors, including Microsoft, Thrive Capital, Coatue and Altimeter, the person said. Microsoft and Thrive Capital led previous investment rounds in OpenAI.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Altman helped create OpenAI as a nonprofit in 2015, along with Tesla\u2019s chief executive, Elon Musk, and several others. In 2018, after Mr. Musk left the organization after a battle for control, Mr. Altman attached OpenAI to a for-profit company so he could raise the billions of dollars needed to build artificial intelligence technologies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But the nonprofit retained control of the company. Last year, Mr. Altman and his company began working on <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/12\/27\/technology\/openai-public-benefit-corporation.html\" title=\"\">a plan to shift control of the company<\/a> from the nonprofit to OpenAI\u2019s investors as a for-profit company.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Soon after, Mr. Musk sued OpenAI and Mr. Altman, claiming they had breached the company\u2019s founding contract by putting commercial interests ahead of the public good.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">OpenAI plans to move control of the company to a public benefit corporation, or P.B.C., which is a for-profit corporation designed to create public and social good. If this shift is not completed by the end of the year, SoftBank will have the option to reduce its total contribution to $20 billion, said a person familiar with the latest investment deal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Musk and a consortium of investors escalated his longstanding feud with Mr. Altman this year by <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/10\/technology\/elon-musk-openai-bid.html\" title=\"\">offering to buy<\/a> for more than $97 billion the assets of the nonprofit that controls OpenAI. OpenAI\u2019s board of directors rejected the bid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But the bid could still complicate Mr. Altman\u2019s efforts to separate the company from the nonprofit board and raise the billions of dollars that OpenAI needs to build new technologies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">(The Times has <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/12\/27\/business\/media\/new-york-times-open-ai-microsoft-lawsuit.html\" title=\"\">sued<\/a> OpenAI and its partner, Microsoft, claiming copyright infringement of news content related to A.I. systems. The two companies have denied the suit\u2019s claims.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
