OpenAI raises $122B at $852B valuation

OpenAI closed a $122B funding round at an $852B valuation while running at $2B monthly revenue, though a separate $6B share sale stalled out with no buyers. Anthropic leaked Claude's source code in their second security incident this month, then turned around and bought biotech startup Coefficient Bio for $400M.
