Agreed. Crucially, it doesn’t ask _why_ they want this line of credit and assumes it’s to serve as an equal source of financing as capital investment. Yet, I think the reason for this credit line is rather straight-forward risk management: it is not at all inconceivable that any one of the numerous legal proceedings the firm is already entangled in (to say nothing of ones surely to come) conclude in settlements that would be existential without it. If I were an OpenAI investor, I would certainly want a story for how they would handle such an expected emergency. A few other high-growth startups are publicly known to have obtained such a line of credit at a similar stage.
