NVDA reportedly pauses talks on a large OpenAI investment, thoughts?

Seeing reports that Nvidia may have paused discussions around a $100B investment into OpenAI, possibly shifting toward a smaller equity stake instead.

Doesn’t sound like a breakdown in the partnership, more a question of scale and capital allocation. Still interesting given how central Nvidia is to the AI ecosystem right now.

How do people here interpret this?
Prudent capital discipline, or a signal that AI investment expectations are getting stretched?
