If you owe the bank $100, that's your problem. If you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem. If you owe the bank $100 billion, that's the government's problem.
BREAKING: OpenAI is requesting US government support to help guarantee financing for the massive investments in AI chips and data centers it needs for expansion, per Bloomberg.

The framing of this as a financial problem misses the real dynamic at play. When infrastructure costs become this massive.. it's not about bailouts or guarantees.. but about whether a government sees strategic value in maintaining competitive positioning in a critical technology sector. The question isn't if OpenAI gets support.. but what conditions come attached and whether those conditions help or hinder the actual technological progress we need.
