Semafor reported OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has canceled a planned Abu Dhabi visit
this weekend; OpenAI is preparing for an IPO. Altman had been due to meet
executives from sovereign wealth fund Mubadala, AI group G42 and their JV MGX—an
investor in OpenAI—and to hold talks with ADNOC. Sources said heightened
tensions around the Iran conflict created uncertainty; the reason for the
cancellation remains unclear.
