Sam Altman Joins Tech Leaders in Supporting Trump's Inauguration Fund
According to BlockBeats, OpenAI founder and CEO Sam Altman is set to join the ranks of American tech giants contributing to President-elect Trump's inauguration fund. In a written statement, Altman expressed his belief that Trump will guide the nation into the era of artificial intelligence and emphasized his eagerness to support efforts to ensure the United States maintains its leadership position.
Reports indicate that Altman plans to donate $1 million to the Presidential Inaugural Committee in a personal capacity, rather than through OpenAI. This move follows similar announcements from other tech leaders, including Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos, who have each pledged $1 million to the inauguration fund. These contributions are reportedly aimed at fostering a positive relationship with the incoming president.
