Summary
OpenAI, the brain behind ChatGPT, has officially filed for an IPO, poised to hit Wall Street and join Anthropic and SpaceX as major AI players going public. Valued at a staggering $852 billion, the company — once a nonprofit — restructured into a public benefit corporation while retaining nonprofit oversight. Their CFO confirmed they’ve operated like a public company financially, and going public would unlock massive capital for AI’s biggest competitive edge: computing power. With potential S&P 500 top-15 status, the move brings scrutiny, validation, and access to deeper investor pools — all while they wait to see if the timing is right.
