(snip) On Wednesday morning, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman replied directly to Musk.
“I genuinely respect your accomplishments and think you are the most inspiring entrepreneur of our time,” Altman wrote on X.
Yet Musk’s claim about Softbank’s liquidity was “wrong, as you surely know,” Altman wrote in a follow-up post.
“I realize what is great for the country isn’t always what’s optimal for your companies, but in your new role i hope you’ll mostly put [American flag emoji] first,” he added.
OpenAI and Oracle did not immediately respond to CNBC’s requests for comment on Musk’s claim. Softbank declined to comment.
Musk’s post about Softbank was “far off base,” according to a person familiar with the AI project, who was granted anonymity to discuss the situation.
“There’s no doubt” that Musk’s testy relationship with Altman was the catalyst for his posts about Stargate, the person added.
Musk’s comments undermined Trump’s announcement Tuesday afternoon that Stargate “will invest $500 billion at least” and create “over 100,000 American jobs almost immediately.”
“I think it’s going to be something that’s very special. It’ll lead to something that could be the biggest of all,” said Trump.
