OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on Tuesday that the company currently has no specific IPO plans, and going public is not a priority. It will only be considered after "several safety case validations" are completed and there is a clear understanding of "the next level of AI." Media reported on the same day that OpenAI is seeking to raise over $30 billion at a valuation of $1.4 trillion, using a bridge round to supplement funding instead of an IPO.
