Maybe I have different priors than the author but I never saw the $500b Stargate as anything "real" in the first place. It seemed pretty obvious this was a way to give an authoritarian president with a love for big numbers and a vindictive streak a win while OpenAI was taking away attention from him.

Same as Foxconn's LCD factory.

I don't like it, I don't respect the companies that do it, but I also understand it.
