The "Semaphore" news website quoted informed sources as saying that Microsoft is in talks to invest $10 billion in the "Open AI" company that owns the "ChatGBT" application for chatting using artificial intelligence. According to the report, the financing would value the San Francisco-based company at $29 billion.
He added that the financing includes other investments from "venture capital" firms, and that documents for the deal have been sent to potential investors in the past few weeks. OpenAI, founded by billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk and investor Sam Altman, made ChatGBT available for free testing on November 30.
GBT Chat is an electronic application designed to simulate human conversations based on instructions provided by the user to the application. Launched at the end of November, ChatGBT had 1 million users in less than a week, as its imitation of human conversations fueled speculation that it could replace professional writers and even threaten Google's core search business.
