Investors perceive frontier model companies with the potential to become industry leaders as extremely valuable, with a seemingly unlimited worth. OpenAI is reportedly in discussions to raise $8 to $10 billion from G42, a controversial company with complex relationships involving US and Chinese partners. It's unclear whether this funding is related to a $100 billion valuation round or a separate initiative. The G42 partnership with OpenAI has been exploring an AI chip project, although the extent of the project's integration with OpenAI is unclear.
The New York Times has sued OpenAI and Microsoft. While it's not the first copyright suit of its type, it's certainly the most significant so far. The case -- which will almost certainly end up at the Supreme Court -- could have significant ramifications for how LLMs and generative AI develops.
