"Everything starts with compute," Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI said in a release.

"Compute infrastructure will be the basis for the economy of the future, and we will utilize what we're building with Nvidia to both create new AI breakthroughs and empower people and businesses with them at scale."

Nvidia's investment comes days after it committed $5 billion to struggling chipmaker Intel.
