OpenAI’s dealmaking streak in 2025 got context as CEO Sam Altman used a lengthy post on X to lay out ambitions and numbers. He said the company expects to end the year above a $20 billion annualized run rate, aims for hundreds of billions by 2030, and is looking at about $1.4 trillion in commitments over eight years.
