OpenAI is reportedly set to raise an impressive $11.5 billion, bringing its valuation to $150 billion—up from a previous estimate of $100 billion. This surge is likely driven by the anticipated launch of new AI models like "Strawberry" and "Q-Star," which are expected to deliver major improvements in accuracy and problem-solving, even if they come with some initial speed trade-offs. The funding will probably be directed towards enhancing computing power, attracting top talent, and optimizing their models further.
