The project would help OpenAI move toward owning AI infrastructure, although ⁠its ability to fund large-scale commitments remains under scrutiny because the company is unprofitable despite a valuation of $852 billion.

Fantasy league valuation, you fucking muppet. Go public, open the ledger and we'll see what it's actually worth.

They're planning on it. They want nothing more than to go public and leave retail investors and retirement plans holding the bag.

Yeah, all of these datacenters funded by other companies sure would help OpenAI own AI infrastructure, because that is definitely how that works.

Edit: Sorry, posted as reply, when it should just have been a comment.
