The project, a collaboration between OpenAI, Oracle, SoftBank, and MGX, aims to build state-of-the-art data centers across the U.S. to support advanced AI systems, with an initial $100 billion to be deployed immediately. Musk, however, took to X to express his doubts, claiming SoftBank had secured \"well under $10 billion\" and suggesting that the project\u2019s financial promises might not be solid. This criticism, coming from Musk\u2014a former OpenAI co-founder and now one of its fiercest critics\u2014has further fueled speculation about his ongoing feud with OpenAI\u2019s CEO, Sam Altman.The public reaction has been polarizing, with some siding with Musk, citing skepticism over the project's financial feasibility and SoftBank\u2019s history with failed ventures like WeWork. Others have rallied behind Stargate's backers, arguing that the consortium\u2019s combined assets and partnerships with tech giants like Arm, NVIDIA, and Microsoft ensure its credibility. Musk\u2019s history with OpenAI, including his departure in 2018 and subsequent lawsuits accusing the company of betraying its nonprofit roots, has only added to the drama. Whether Musk\u2019s comments reflect legitimate concerns or personal vendettas, one thing is clear: Project Stargate represents a bold move for AI in the U.S., and its success or failure will be closely watched.","author_name":"What's Trending","author_url":"https:\/\/www.dailymotion.com\/whatstrending","width":480,"height":271,"html":"
