On January 23rd, according to CNBC, insiders revealed that before officially taking office as president, Trump had a lengthy conversation with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, discussing the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and the necessity of developing this technology in the United States. In last Friday's conversation, Trump was particularly enthusiastic about promoting AI construction in the United States rather than allowing it to develop in other countries, and discussed what this may mean for job creation and public confidence during his administration. After being officially sworn in on Monday, Trump quickly began promoting the importance of AI. He announced a joint plan on Tuesday to collaborate with OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank to invest billions of dollars in AI infrastructure in the United States. It is worth noting that OpenAI's involvement is particularly noteworthy as Ultraman is engaged in a fierce legal battle with Musk. Musk is an advisor to Trump and one of his main financial supporters for the 2024 campaign. He is also a co-founder of OpenAI, which was founded as a non-profit in 2015.
