ChatGPT-maker OpenAI is now telling investors that it expects to spend around $600 million on compute infrastructure by 2030. This new spending target is a sharp reduction from the $1.4 trillion figure which OpenAI CEO Sam Altman touted last year. According to a report by CNBC, the company is now offering a more defined timeline and tying its spending plan more closely to projected revenue growth. OpenAI projects over $280 billion in revenue by 2030, with nearly equal contribution from consumer and enterprise businesses. In 2025, the company generated around $13.1 billion in revenue surpassing its target of $10 bullion, while burning through $8 billion, slightly below its $9 billion forecast.
