Amazon may invest $50B in OpenAI, with $15B upfront and up to $35B tied to AGI or IPO.

Amazon is reportedly negotiating a potential $50 billion investment in OpenAI, with $15 billion paid upfront and up to $35 billion tied to either the AI company achieving artificial general intelligence (AGI) or going public. The deal, part of a broader fundraising effort, could exceed $100 billion with additional contributions from SoftBank and Nvidia. The investment, still unconfirmed, reflects intense competition among tech giants to lead in AI development. Neither Amazon nor OpenAI has verified the report.
