Trump holds intensive meetings with Silicon Valley CEOs, hosting Apple CEO Tim Cook at Mar-a-Lago on Friday night. Cook is the latest in a series of meetings with major tech leaders, including OpenAI's Sam Altman, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, and Amazon's Jeff Bezos, who are seeking to improve relations with the incoming president after a rocky relationship during Trump's first term. It is reported that last month, Trump dined with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, and met with Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai this Thursday. Additionally, Trump has stated that he plans to meet with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos next week.
Earlier reports indicated that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman donated $1 million to the inauguration fund of elected President Trump, and the artificial intelligence search startup Perplexity also contributed $1 million. Meta recently confirmed it has donated $1 million to Trump's inauguration fund, and Amazon is also reportedly planning to contribute $1 million to the inauguration fund of elected President Trump.
