It’s perhaps not too surprising that Apple and Nvidia might end up investing in OpenAI. Apple is set to integrate ChatGPT with Siri later this year, and it reportedly planned to have Phil Schiller join OpenAI’s board before apparently abandoning that plan. And Nvidia is a key supplier to OpenAI, which relies on Nvidia’s chips to help power its AI services.

Microsoft is also in talks to join the funding round, according to Bloomberg. The company invested $1 billion in OpenAI in 2019 and made a multibillion-dollar investment in 2023.

Apple and OpenAI didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment. Nvidia and Microsoft declined to comment.
