Summary
- OpenAI may require over $200 billion by 2030 for continued operations.

- ChatGPT user base is projected to surge to 3 billion by the decade's end.

OpenAI, the influential entity behind ChatGPT, may need to secure over $200 billion by 2030 to sustain its ambitious growth. This projection stems from escalating computing expenses as the global artificial intelligence race intensifies.
HSBC's analysis indicates a funding shortfall of approximately $207 billion by the end of the decade, even with optimistic revenue forecasts. The firm's cloud computing bills alone could reach a staggering $800 billion in total by 2030.
The company anticipates dramatic user expansion, with ChatGPT potentially attracting 3 billion monthly users by 2030, a substantial increase from its current 800 million. This surge underscores the high stakes for OpenAI and its tech giant partners.
