Openai CFO Sarah Friar explains how AI is centerstaging with Davos, what Stargate Project means for the macroeconomics, and details of new products for key customers.
A group of investors led by billionaire Elon Musk dominated the open by offering $97.4 billion, burning feud with Sam Altman against ChatGpt behind the artificial intelligence (AI) company.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk's attorney, Marc Toberoff, said he submitted a bid to Openai's board of directors on Monday.
The offer was unsolicited, but could hinder Altman's plans for the future of the open. He also reportedly plans to spend up to $500 billion on infrastructure to support AI through Stargate, which is part of Altman.
Musk and Altman are fighting it in court about the future direction of the open.

Altman responded to Musk's offer on X, saying, “Thank you, but you can buy Twitter if you wish for $9.74 billion.”
Musk turned to X and immediately fought back with “Swindler,” and later wrote, “There are no boring moments of X.”
Musk was a co-founder of Openai, but in 2018 he was unable to convince other leaders to take charge of commercial Openai entities or to convince the company to merge with Tesla, causing him to cut ties with the company. Ta. Weiss likens Altman to the “Little Finger” character, the enemy of the “Game of Thrones” series, and the founder of Xai trusts Altman will lead the company that manages the world's most powerful AI. He said he said there was no.

Both Musk and Altman launched Openai as a charity in 2015. When Musk left, Altman became CEO and the company established a for-profit subsidiary to raise funds from investors and Microsoft. Currently, Altman is trying to turn its subsidiary into a traditional company, WSJ reports.
Last month, President Trump announced a massive $500 billion infrastructure project called Stargate. Key names such as SoftBank, Openai, Oracle, and others join forces to build data centers in the US for further development of AI.
Following the announcement of Stargate, Musk casts doubt Regarding the ability to track project promises, the company's cohort claims they did not actually have the money to complete the project.

The initial investment is expected to be $100 billion, which could reach five times the total. Microsoft, Nvidia, Investor MGX and Chipmaker Arm are also partners of the project.
Musk won X shortly after the announcement and expressed doubt about his open ability to financially support Stargate.
“They don't actually have any money,” Musk posted to X in response to Openai's post promoting Stargate. “SoftBank has secured collateral of less than $100 billion, and I have that with good authority.”
