3. OpenAI, White House said to discuss government stake
Sam Altman and Trump admin officials are reportedly in talks about a possible government stake in the company.
OpenAI could donate equity to seed its proposed U.S. Public Wealth Fund.
No investment terms have been finalized, though.
Trump addressed the talks and said: “There were concepts where pieces could be given to the American public.”
