Thinking Machines Lab, founded by Mira Murati, former CTO of OpenAI, seeks to raise $1 billion at a $9 billion valuation. The startup has attracted around 20 former OpenAI researchers and other team members from major companies like Meta and Mistral AI. Its open-source model aims to develop adaptable and personalized AI systems for various professional fields. The funding landscape shows a trend in AI startups linked to OpenAI receiving significant investments, with notable examples including Anthropic's potential $3.5 billion raise, xAI's $10 billion fundraising effort, and Safe Superintelligence's $1 billion funding round. OpenAI itself is finalizing a $40 billion deal that could elevate its valuation to $260 billion. If successful, Thinking Machines Lab will add to the trend of early-stage AI startups reaching unicorn status rapidly.
