Sources familiar with the matter: The U.S. government is considering investing in artificial intelligence companies, but specific details have not yet been finalized.

CoinFeed reported on June 6th, citing CCTV News, that three sources familiar with the matter revealed that senior U.S. government officials have held preliminary discussions with major U.S. artificial intelligence companies to explore the possibility of government investment in these companies. The sources indicated that since the beginning of President Trump's second term, Altman, CEO of the Open AI Research Center, has regularly discussed this idea with senior government officials. Altman first proposed the concept to Trump in early 2025 and has recently discussed it again with senior government officials, viewing it as a way to more broadly distribute the economic benefits of artificial intelligence to the public. It is understood that the discussions focus on having these companies "voluntarily transfer shares to the government," with the investment returns subsequently available for public use. However, the plan is still in the planning stages, and specific details have not yet been finalized.
