Odaily Planet Daily reports that OpenAI founder Sam Altman has published a rare lengthy statement clarifying related news, stating that OpenAI does not seek or expect government guarantees for data centers. He believes governments should not pick winners or use taxpayer money to bail out failing companies. If OpenAI fails, other companies will continue to work. He suggests that governments build and own their own AI infrastructure, with the profits going to the government, potentially providing low-cost capital to establish a national reserve of computing power, but for the benefit of the government, not private companies.
OpenAI projects annualized revenue exceeding $20 billion this year and reaching hundreds of billions of dollars by 2030, with expected investment commitments of approximately $1.4 trillion over the next eight years. Revenue streams will include enterprise products, new consumer devices, robotics, AI scientific discoveries, direct sales of computing power, and potential future equity or debt issuance. OpenAI does not aim to be "too big to fail," leaving failure to the market. Furthermore, it hopes for widespread and affordable artificial intelligence. The technology is expected to have huge market demand and improve people's lives in many ways.
