OpenAI confidentially files for IPO as Sam Altman’s Tools for Humanity cuts staff

OpenAI 秘密提交 IPO 申请，奥特曼旗下 Tools for Humanity 裁员

OpenAI confidentially filed for an IPO, while Sam Altman’s Tools for Humanity cut staff amid revenue pressure; Tools for Humanity is valued at $2.5 billion post-money, and South Korea fined the company $830,000 for privacy violations tied to its World iris-scanning project.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: a confidential OpenAI IPO filing is a foundation-model capital-markets event in the 95–100 band, with concrete figures on Tools for Humanity valuation and Korea's fine.
