Feng Huang Wang· 2025-09-25 13:51
奥特曼、扎克伯格接近特朗普 凤凰网科技讯 北京时间9月25日,据《金融时报》报道,Meta CEO马克·扎克伯格(Mark Zuckerberg)和OpenAI CEO萨姆·奥特曼(Sam Altman)一直试图拉 近与特朗普的关系,但是他们的走近可能只是暂时的,只是为了满足各自的利益。 最近,特朗普在白宫举行晚宴,招待了美国的科技大亨。当时,扎克伯格就坐在特朗普的右手边。奥特曼则坐在桌对面注视着他们。 据多位来自华府和Meta、OpenAI的内部人士透露,这两位CEO能够如此接近美国总统,是精心策划的结果。自从今年夏天埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)与特 朗普的关系以戏剧性的方式闹翻后,扎克伯格和奥特曼一直在寻求接近特朗普。 心存怀疑 尽管这两人在白宫的影响力不及马斯克曾经拥有的那样大,但特朗普政府内部的许多人仍对他们深表怀疑,因为他们曾是民主党捐赠者。 这些内部人士将目前的亲近关系形容为权宜之计。一位接近特朗普政府的人士表示:"如果把AI投资从经济中剔除,我们的处境可能会非常非常糟糕。 就是这么回事。" 特朗普还能向电视镜头炫耀他的新盟友。一位知情人士称,本月这场众星云集的白宫晚宴是在匆忙间筹备起来的, ...
