OpenAI did not slash spending from 1.4 trillion to 600 billion. They stated 600 billion by 2030, 1.4 trillion over the next 8 years

A top post on this sub today is an article claiming that openai has slashed spending from 1.4 trillion to 600 billion. But that 1.4 trillion is by 2034. Here is the tweet, end of 2025, saying 1.4 trillion over the next 8 years. Hence, end of 2033 to 2034 depending on in which fiscal year the timer starts: [https://x.com/sama/status/1986514377470845007](https://x.com/sama/status/1986514377470845007)

And reading that post, not one person is pointing this out. So I felt I had to share.

I feel like mods should remove things that are so obviously false and click-bait. But maybe that's the whole point of this sub?
