I mean I think the sales pitch in this case is literally, “Burn an enormous pile of (oil) money, to gain a large but smaller pile of (chip) money”
Sounds great!?
Thing is, it can actually get much worse than optimizing for inclusion. Do we really want Sharia authoritarian AGI?
Or am I misunderstanding what you are saying with your terse reply?
Isn't this the definition of soft power? [0]
When NVIDIA sells GH200s to OpenAI, they expect nothing beyond the transaction. That's very different from getting trillions of dollars in investment from somebody to build chip fabs, etc.
Hysterical to me people on here in other threads would be knocking Altman for trying to raise huge money from people with huge money who have literally made it a goal to diversify into other areas.
What a moron.
But continue having that pile of (chip) money after the oil and gas money runs out (either due to decarbonisation or due literally the resources running out).
