1. At OpenAI, the arrangement seems even more fraught. In 2021, Altman invested $375 million — his largest bet ever — in a nuclear-energy startup named Helion. Now “OpenAI is in talks for a deal with Helion,” the Journal reports, “in which it would buy vast quantities of electricity to provide power for data centers.” Altman reportedly “recused” himself from the talks. But as the Journal notes, this only goes so far: “Even if a CEO recuses him or herself, staff is put in the awkward position of negotiating against their boss’ personal financial interests.”
