OpenAI CEO Altman Joins Zuckerberg, Bezos in $1M Donation to Trump's Inaugural Fund
Dec 13, 2024, 01:55 PM
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has announced his intention to make a personal donation of $1 million to Donald Trump's inaugural fund. This move follows similar pledges from tech giants Mark Zuckerberg of Meta Platforms and Jeff Bezos of Amazon, who have each committed $1 million to the fund. Altman's donation is not from OpenAI but is a personal commitment, reflecting his belief that President-elect Trump will lead the U.S. into the age of artificial intelligence (AI). Altman emphasized the importance of the U.S. leading in AI infrastructure development, especially in the tech race against China, and expressed his eagerness to work with the incoming administration on this front. Bezos will be donating through Amazon, while Zuckerberg promised the Meta gift while attending Trump’s Thanksgiving dinner at his Mar-a-Lago estate.
