Stargate is little more than an extension of Sam Altman's powerful AI company, anonymous sources told the Financial Times.

Stargate: Analysts have noted that Microsoft has become less willing to spend even more money financing the computing power OpenAI requires to retain a lead in AI.

Stargate, the joint venture by OpenAI, SoftBank and Oracle to develop data centers for artificial intelligence in the U.S., will exclusively serve ChatGPT maker OpenAI, the Financial Times reported on Thursday.

OpenAI and SoftBank's "Stargate" took the world by storm after announcing the $500 billion project, which they are collaborating with Oracle and MGX. While making the announcement, the ChatGPT maker indicated that up to $100 billion had already been injected into the project to facilitate the construction of data centers across the United States to bolster sophisticated AI advances.
