Original headline: OpenAI Funding Target Cut by $10 Billion as AI Slumps, FT Says
OpenAI reduced its fundraising goal by $10 billion, lowering the target from $30 billion to $20 billion, after a sharp sell‑off in AI stocks and the impending public listing of rival Anthropic PBC made it harder to secure investor commitments, the Financial Times reported.
The cut signals tightening capital markets for AI startups and heightened competition for investor dollars.
