OpenAI preparing confidential IPO filing in coming weeks. The ChatGPT maker is working with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley on paperwork, with potential public offering as early as September if filing proceeds soon. OpenAI valued at $730 billion in private markets. Rival Anthropic, valued at $900 billion, also moving toward going public. SpaceX similarly positioned for stock market entry next month. An IPO boom in AI companies would generate substantial wealth for Silicon Valley executives and employees while providing significant revenue to Wall Street banks. These offerings represent major milestones in the technology sector's maturation and reflect investor confidence in artificial intelligence companies despite ongoing regulatory scrutiny and community concerns about data center expansion.
