Man behind OpenAI makes shocking new bet (Ad)

Billionaire Sam Altman has become one of the most powerful men in the world by running OpenAI… But there’s a far lesser known investment he’s making that could put OpenAI to shame. In fact this Sam Altman-backed company could actually become a crucial partner for OpenAI… And the US Military… not to mention hundreds of other giant companies around the globe. To make the story even crazier… this company only recently became viable, thanks to an obscure piece of legislation that President Trump signed before he left office… Which ordered the government to take this incredible new technology seriously.
