OpenAI is reportedly seeking at least $30 billion in new private capital at about a $1.4 trillion valuation.

Bloomberg-sourced accounts say the talks follow Sam Altman’s decision to shelve a 2026 IPO over AI safety concerns.

A prior March round valued OpenAI near $852 billion including capital; private marks can shift before any close.
