The number that emerged from a leaked negotiation this month was $320. That is what each American household would receive, in equity, if Sam Altman’s proposal to hand the US government a 5% stake in OpenAI were distributed evenly across American families. Not per year. Not compounding. A one-time paper stake, sitting in a fund somebody else manages, in a private company nobody outside a small circle of institutional investors can currently buy shares in directly.
