[OpenAI Reportedly Requests Government Loan Guarantee, Contradicting CEO's Statement] November 8 news: On October 27, OpenAI submitted an 11-page letter to the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, requesting government loan guarantees and direct financial support for AI infrastructure development. However, just 10 days later, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman publicly stated on social media that 'OpenAI does not need or want government guarantees,' adding that 'taxpayers should not bear the cost of companies' poor business decisions.' Previously, OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar mentioned during an event that federal guarantees could reduce the financing costs of AI infrastructure, but the remarks were quickly retracted due to controversy. This incident has sparked questions about Altman's transparency.
