Amazon has completed its $35 billion follow-on investment in OpenAI ahead of schedule, bringing the total investment to $50 billion (approximately RMB 338.245 billion), with current ownership of approximately 5%. Despite OpenAI not meeting the two conditions of going public or achieving a technological breakthrough, Amazon chose to fulfill its commitment early and paid the final installment this week. OpenAI’s renegotiation of its contract with Microsoft in April was a key prerequisite for Amazon’s agreement to invest the full amount.
