BREAKING NEWS: OpenAI raises a whopping $122 billion. Valuation of $852 billion.

Here are the parts that I found interesting:

• Now generating $2B of revenue...per month.
• Over $3B of the investment was from individual investors.
• They now have over 900M weekly active users.
• Revenue from their ads pilot hit $100M in 6 weeks.

Congrats again to the OpenAI team. You're on a roll.

The flywheel description is spot on. What's wild is how fast they went from $1B to $2B monthly revenue.

900M weekly active users is the number that stands out to me. That's enterprise + consumer at a scale that makes it very hard to displace.
