That's fairly bold to ask for ~6% of the total world economy as well as a sizable chunk of the world's energy.

The fundraising efforts are part of a broader strategy to address OpenAI’s growth constraints,

see...we just can't grow without TRILLIONS OF FUCKING DOLLARS

Good thing the board folded and allowed this to be full for-profit. Getting people reliant on LLM subscriptions is super important for humanity right now.

Another L for Earth, in general.

I wonder if this will be one of the things pointed at after the AI bubble bursts. Yes, AI will be sticking around, but the hype over it now is ridiculous.

Could that level of investment ever be recouped in any other manner than by replacing vast numbers of workers and their salaries?

Thank God there is trickle down economics. We will all benefit in the end... Right?

$7,000,000,000,000? It's a good thing we won't tax it ever at all in any capacity! Not while there's Single Mothers overdrawn on their Bank Accounts! #SaveTheTrillionaires!

We will come to regret not jailing San Altman.

5-7 trillion and they’ll still end up stealing data from all over the internet.

Do they even think about where in a functioning society those trillions are coming from? Do they think wealth just magically appears without affecting the wealth gap?

Can someone ELI5 what's the open in the OpenAI's name at the moment?

I know they released Whisper as an open source model and that's about it, but I might be wrong.

I used to think they were unethical scammers.

Now I know for sure.

Just a few more parameters, then the text prediction model will become sentient.

We could solve so many problems with that much money.

You could build a huge, state-of-the-art orbital station for 1 trillion lol

why spend it on some software

I, too, would like 5-7 trillion dollars

Let's use that money to build an orbital ring instead. Would be cooler and more useful.

Motherfucker is going for the biggest heist of all time. What a colossal waste of money and resources.

$2.92T is current Apple market cap btw

This mother fucker REALLY wants the machine uprising ending.

It’s too bad the non-profit oversight board got killed by the for-profit subsidiary. OpenAI is dead on arrival as useful tech. It’s now a vehicle to deceive investors to raise VC cash.

What are we going to do tonight Pinky?

I'm not pretending AI isn't useful. There is plenty of field where AI helps. But, AI has been the next scam after blockchain, crypto, NFT...

It's the end of our civilization with falling capitalism. But, capitalism will try to find new ways to make short term profits. We moved from fordism to post-fordism with the enslavement of the cognitive abilities. We entered the next era with all these scams. And entshitification is a symptom of this.

Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.

increase world's chip manufacturing

With what raw materials?

Nobody seems to recognize that madness is not in numbers, but in people.
