OpenAI CEO Sam Altman clarified on Wednesday, November 6, that “we [OpenAI] do not have or want government guarantees for OpenAI datacenters,” following a wave of speculation prompted by recent comments from the company’s chief financial officer.
Altman’s post on X follows a policy document submitted by OpenAI proposed expanded federal support for the infrastructure needed to scale artificial intelligence systems, positioning AI data centers and related equipment as eligible for U.S. manufacturing incentives. His remarks come just hours after Trump's AI chief, David Sacks, stated that there would be "no federal bailout for AI."
