(Bloomberg) — Nvidia Corp. will “absolutely” be involved in OpenAI’s current funding round, though the investment will be “nothing like” $100 billion, Chief Executive Jensen Huang said.
Huang declined to specify how much the investment will be, though he added that it would probably be “the largest investment we’ve ever made.”

Nvidia and OpenAI announced in September they had signed a letter of intent that could see the chip giant invest as much as $100 billion in the AI firm. The Wall Street Journal reported on Friday that the investment plans had stalled after some inside Nvidia expressed doubts about the deal.
According to the September announcement, the $100 billion was meant to support new data centers and other AI infrastructure, built with Nvidia components. They were aiming for 10 gigawatts’ worth of computing power — equivalent to the peak electricity demand of New York City.
OpenAI has been seeking to raise as much as $100 billion in its current funding round. Amazon.com Inc. is in talks to invest as much as $50 billion and expand an agreement that involves selling computer power to the AI startup, Bloomberg reported Thursday.
