Are they donating some of their debt? Is money even real?

    No, OpenAI keeps the debt until they file bankruptcy defrauding investors of many billions total. Likely right before the Trump admin ends so that they can bribe officials to let them off the hook.

    The stolen cash is being used to pressure maintainers for things like Rust.
