OpenAI, 가치 재정립... '800억 달러 이상'

OpenAI, the Microsoft-backed artificial intelligence (AI) company, has been valued at at least $80 billion in a recent deal, according to a new report. The New York Times, citing unnamed sources, reported on Nov. 16 that OpenAI sold its existing stock in a tender offer led by venture capital firm Thrive Capital. According to the report, the transaction was conducted by cashing in existing shares held by employees, rather than issuing new shares to investors to raise funds, as is typical in an investment round. OpenAI's deal is seen as an indicator that AI technology is becoming increasingly valuable. It also signals that OpenAI is gaining traction with investors.

마이크로소프트 투자를 받는 인공지능(AI) 기업 OpenAI가 최근 거래를 통해 최소 800억 달러의 기업 가치를 인정받았다는 새로운 보고서 나왔다. 뉴욕타임즈는 익명의 소식통을 인용해 지난 16일, OpenAI가 벤처 캐피탈 회사 스라이브캐피털(Thrive Capital)이 주도하는 공모 입찰(Tender Offer)을 통해 기존 주식을 매각했다고 보도했다. 보고서에 따르면 이번 거래는 일반적인 투자 라운드와 달리 기업 자금 유치를 위해 투자자에게 새 주식을 발행하는 대신 직원들이 보유한 기존 주식을 현금화하는 형태로 진행되었다. OpenAI의 이번 거래는 AI 기술의 가치가 점점 더 높아지고 있다는 것을 보여주는 지표로 평가된다. 또한 OpenAI가 투자자들에게 큰 관심을 받고 있다는 것을 의미한다.

X, AI 훈련용 데이터 제공 허용하는 개인정보 정책 변경

Social media platform X has announced changes to its privacy policy that will allow it to provide user data to third parties for AI model training purposes. The policy, set to take effect on November 15, 2024, is expected to pave the way for external companies to purchase X's data in the form of licenses. The new policy introduces a "third-party collaborators" section, but the specific methods for users to opt out of data sharing remain unclear. This move is seen as a potential new revenue stream for X, which has experienced a decline in advertising revenue. Meanwhile, X has also strengthened penalties for 'scraping', the unauthorized collection of large numbers of tweets. The company has decided to impose a fine of $15,000 for accessing more than one million posts per day. X's owner, Elon Musk, has maintained a tough stance on scraping, and this policy change appears to reflect his attitude.
