OpenAI is now lobbying to classify datacenter spending as “American manufacturing.”
In their recent submission, they explicitly advocate for Federal loan guarantees the same kind used to subsidize large-scale industrial projects.
OpenAI's solution to its unsustainable costs is to have the American taxpayer indirectly foot the bill.

@yogthos You're overthinking it.
It's not OpenAI's solution, rather this is government handing out money and OpenAI saying yes please.
If government is handing out money, might as well take it.
