OpenAI Reportedly in Talks to Raise At Least $4 Billion From Miss Vicky, Kettle and Use Their Chips

Dec 17 (BTO) - An appointed joint special committee by Miss Vicky, Kettle and dark horse Zapps is in talks to invest in Sora-maker OpenAI in a shocking deal that could value the AI trendsetter at more than $1 gajillion, a BTO insider said earlier this week.

Industry sentiment is in free-fall as talks of an AI 'bubble' become more commonplace outside of niche internet circles. Rumors of a new deal with OpenAI, Miss Vicky, Kettle, Zapps, are injecting fresh energy into the market, with the S&P500 up one billion trillion percent since market close yesterday.

The snack manufacturers may invest about $4 billion in the AI startup, but the talks between all firms are still in early stages. CEO and founder Sam Altman in particular is 'interested in Sea Salt & Vinegar' infrastructure that could be provided by the snack titans, the source said on condition of anonymity because the matter is private.

OpenAI did not immediately respond to a BTO request for comment.
