NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA), Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT), and Amazon.com (NASDAQ: AMZN) are reportedly in discussions to invest as much as $60 billion combined into artificial intelligence powerhouse OpenAI, signaling a major escalation in the global AI investment race. According to a report by The Information, the talks are still ongoing and were confirmed by a source familiar with the matter.
NVIDIA is said to be considering an investment of up to $30 billion, while Microsoft and Amazon are each exploring multi-billion-dollar commitments of their own. If finalized, the deal would represent one of the largest private funding rounds in tech history and further solidify OpenAI’s position as a dominant force in generative artificial intelligence.
The potential investments come as OpenAI seeks to raise as much as $100 billion to support its expanding AI research, large language model development, and massive data center infrastructure needs. The funding round could value the ChatGPT creator at approximately $830 billion, underscoring investor confidence in the long-term growth of AI-driven technologies and enterprise adoption.
Earlier reports also revealed that Japan-based SoftBank Group Corp. (TYO: 9984) is in talks to invest up to $30 billion in OpenAI. This would build on SoftBank’s existing $41 billion stake, which it completed in December. SoftBank has been aggressively expanding its AI portfolio, viewing artificial intelligence as a core driver of future global economic growth.
In addition, OpenAI and SoftBank have jointly launched a massive $500 billion initiative known as the Stargate project, aimed at building next-generation AI data centers across the United States. The project is designed to provide the computing power required to train and deploy increasingly advanced AI models at scale.
With major technology leaders like NVIDIA, Microsoft, Amazon, and SoftBank circling OpenAI, the talks highlight intensifying competition among Wall Street’s top AI stocks and reflect the strategic importance of AI infrastructure, cloud computing, and semiconductor technology in shaping the future of the digital economy.
