Nvidia announced plans to invest up to $100 billion in OpenAI, primarily for purchasing its advanced AI chips to power new data centers. This creates a circular funding loop, where Nvidia’s investment drives demand for its own hardware, reinforcing its position in the AI infrastructure market. Analysts say the move strengthens Nvidia’s dual role as supplier and strategic investor in the trillion-dollar AI ecosystem, enabling next-generation computing innovation and cementing influence over both AI development and commercial deployment.
