Nvidia to Invest $100 Billion in OpenAI

Nvidia plans on investing as much as $100 billion in artificial intelligence company OpenAI as part of a strategic partnership to expand OpenAI’s datacenter capacity.

On Sept. 22, the two technology companies announced they had signed a letter of intent to form a long-term partnership. The deal will enable OpenAI to build and deploy at least 10 gigawatts of AI datacenter systems, with Nvidia providing millions of graphics processing units as well as network infrastructure. The first phase of the datacenter project is slated to come online in the second half of 2026.
