Why is Mira Murati's start-up raising $2 billion – even though it has few employees and still has no product?

Several foreign media outlets reported this week that Mira Murati is raising around $2 billion for her AI startup, Thinking Machines Lab.
This company is only a few months old, and employs only a handful of people.
It doesn't even have products yet.
So why would investors invest so much money and value such a young company at around $10 billion?
For this, an article published in Business Insider has brought an interesting explanation, reports Telegraph.
It is based on how venture capital works in the era of generative AI and Big Tech.
According to the article, this is a very expensive option for Mira's startup that is performing spectacularly.
But if that happens, a $10 billion valuation could become $100 billion. Or $1 trillion. OpenAI, where Murati once worked, was recently valued at $300 billion. Google is worth almost $2 trillion. /Telegraph/
