OpenAI's Chief Financial Officer recently publicly stated that they hope the US government will play a larger role in future financing. This move reflects a phenomenon—leading tech companies have gradually involved all parties in the supply chain, from major technology firms to policymakers, forming a tightly knit web of vested interests. Market observers believe that if government capital truly enters the AI financing sector on a large scale, the tech industry as a whole might welcome it.

But it's worth pondering that AI is essentially more like a magnifying glass. It amplifies productivity and innovation speed, but also magnifies the rigidity of the system itself; it unleashes the potential of productivity, while also intensifying the profit-seeking impulses of capital. This duality may be the aspect we truly need to observe.

Government bailout? Isn't this just socializing risks? Capital wants to make a profit without risk, with taxpayers footing the bill. The AI magnifying glass analogy is fitting, but honestly, who really cares about the rigidity of the system? The tighter the利益绑定, the faster the韭菜 are harvested. I see through this logic; it's just about making public funds work for private profits. No matter how nicely it's said, it doesn't change the fact. Waiting for the central bank to be persuaded to invest in AI too. The rigidity of the system has been amplified, profit-seeking by capital has been amplified, but we haven't seen the benefits for ordinary people being amplified. To be honest, government-funded projects ultimately benefit not these big companies and their shareholders.

Basically, they just want the government to foot the bill, the capital playbook is still the same. --- Government intervention is a double-edged sword; efficiency increases but freedom decreases. The question is, who pays the bill? --- The magnifying glass metaphor is excellent, but what’s actually being amplified is human greed. --- Leading companies compete with the government, small companies get squeezed to death—that’s the current situation. --- Efficiency and rigidity coexist... sounds like I’m talking about my own investment portfolio. --- It seems that in the end, the group of people who finance AI will be the ones to profit, while the risks are spread across the entire ecosystem.

Government bailout? That's just the game rules; in the end, taxpayers are the ones footing the bill.

Another tactic of capital manipulation, when the government steps in, everyone feels good. --- After research and analysis, this is a textbook case of interest binding. --- Magnifying glass? I think it just speeds up the harvest of the little guys. --- Data shows that after large-scale financing, the probability of suspicious backgrounds of project teams rises sharply. Caution is advised. --- Don't be greedy; government intervention instead indicates that the bubble is about to burst. --- The tokenomics design is so complicated, just to prevent retail investors from seeing through it. --- Historical data shows that every "strategic financing" is a signal before escape. Is it worth positioning? I don't think so.

This is a classic case of a snake swallowing an elephant, ultimately a collusion between capital and power. Government intervention? Ha, in the end, who benefits if not those big players. The part about the AI magnifying glass is correct, but the question is who can restrain this mirror. No one really wants to regulate it—doesn't making money together feel better? Another new power game, retail investors are still the ones being cut.

Government intervention? Basically, they want to socialize the risks, while keeping the profits for themselves.

The government pays, but in the end, it's still the retail investors who foot the bill.
