OpenAI’s $34 billion spending surge

OpenAI reportedly spent $34 billion in 2025 as it expanded computing capacity, developed new models and prepared for a possible IPO. Figures reported by the Financial Times and covered by Reuters suggest around $19 billion went towards research and development, while nearly $6 billion was spent on sales and marketing.

For investors, the main question is where that money is going. The spending could support chips, cloud computing and data-centre infrastructure, while increasing pressure on smaller AI companies and software businesses.
