Yeah, he was right to say it, too.
Idk, Mastodon's "tyranny of the server admin" is sounding better every day. If the public square is going to be ruled by unaccountable dipshits, at least let me pick my dipshit.

![Look. OpenAI intends to burn over $852 billion by the end of 2030. It accounts for $748 billion of the remaining performance obligations of Microsoft, Amazon, and Oracle, on top of at least another $70 billion of RPOs across Cerebras, CoreWeave, Nebius, IREN, Lambda, and Nscale (per Kakashii), and plans to spend indeterminate billions’-worth of Broadcom “Jalapeno” chips. It intends to spend $50 billion or more on compute this year, which I estimate is more than 50% of all global AI compute spend (with OpenAI taking up 50%+ of all AI compute infrastructure).
OpenAI can only afford to pay that as a result of its latest (assuming it fully closes) $122 billion funding round, of which it has received at least $50 billion, with $20 billion from SoftBank (of $30 billion, with the third tranche due October 1, 2026). NVIDIA mentioned in its latest quarterly earnings report that it “estimate[d] that one AI research and deployment company contributed to a meaningful amount of [its] revenue by purchasing cloud services from [its] customers in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027,” referring, of course, to OpenAI.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qc6xzgctorfsm35w6i3vdebx/bafkreifudnqho324fcn5nxmchhcgz7irws3trnt6l4x4pconng77gu2fmy)
