Knowing your supplier is always good – and super lab's auditors promise to check for conflicts of interest

OpenAI is reportedly in talks with Helion to get access to the startup's not-yet-possible nuclear fusion-driven electricity generators.Altman, CEO of OpenAI, separately serves as the chairman of Helion's board of directors with a $375 million stake in the nuclear firm. He has recused himself from the negotiations, it's stated.

Getting OpenAI as a customer would be a win for Helion, which aims to build practical useful fusion power plants using technology that's still under development. Whatever deal the two parties agree to, it could mean more R&D for Helion so it can pursue possibly-not-workable nuclear fusion tech.

While Microsoft's deal concerns a 50 megawatt power plant, perhaps Helion aims to have more capacity than just that, and wants to sell its energy supply to OpenAI, which would need lots of power if it wants to build a few more supercomputers of its own.
