OpenAI is now lobbying to classify datacenter spending as “American manufacturing.”

In their recent submission, they explicitly advocate for Federal loan guarantees the same kind used to subsidize large-scale industrial projects.

OpenAI's solution to its unsustainable costs is to have the American taxpayer indirectly foot the bill.

AI server production; and AI data centers. Broadening coverage of the AMIC will lower the effective cost of capital, de-risk early investment, and unlock private capital to help alleviate bottlenecks and accelerate the AI build in the US. Counter the PRC by de-risking US manufacturing expansion. To provide manufacturers with the certainty and capital they need to scale production quickly, the federal government should also deploy grants, cost-sharing agreements, loans, or loan guarantees to expand industrial base capacity and resilience.

You're overthinking it.

It's not OpenAI's solution, rather this is government handing out money and OpenAI saying yes please.

If government is handing out money, might as well take it.
