| Why would that happen? Extremely little will happen to the US economy if OAI fails. The government has absolutely no reason to bail them out beyond pure corruption. OAI's most valuable assets are hardware that will be worthless in 6-8 years. The second most valuable assets are the code which other companies are doing just fine with their own. The third is the hype halo that keeps them getting these deals that are disconnected from reality. Nothing there is holding up the economy. They only have 4,000 employees. If they all lost their jobs, it would barely be a blip in a monthly jobs report. It's not as though millions of people will lose their jobs disrupting the economy like COVID. The only downside is some imaginary money vanishes and some investors take a haircut on the imaginary money. |

"Adversaries" will almost certainly be mentioned, "China" specifically has a 50% chance to be name-dropped. | |

| I have no idea why they would do that. Outside blatant corruption, which we shouldn't discount. |

| Do they have enough liquidity to bribe Trump to do that? |
