So, I'm surprised there isn't a discussion about the Stargate project here already. It got posted twice: https://stacker.news/items/858961 https://stacker.news/items/859422 but to me the big elephant in the room is ... that 500b is a big f*cking number?

Other things that don't make sense
- Why Oracle? OpenAIs long term partner is Microsoft and there is no reason to think Microsoft would have worse access to chips and scaling energy than Oracle
- Trump backed? And Elon seems to hate it? What gives?
- 100b immediately? From where? OpenAIs private valuation is like 100b or 150b so?
