Nvidia's negotiations to invest as much as $100 billion in OpenAI have broken down, the Wall Street Journal reported, after internal concerns stalled discussions. The firms had signed a September letter of intent to build roughly 10 gigawatts of computing capacity; Nvidia may still invest tens of billions, while Amazon is reportedly in talks to invest up to $50 billion.
