The shortfall has sparked internal concern about whether the company can keep pace with the massive financial commitments required to build out data centers and secure long-term computing capacity.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, finance chief Sarah Friar has warned colleagues that if revenue growth doesn&#8217;t accelerate, the company could face difficulty funding future compute agreements.<\/p>\n<p>OpenAI pushed back on the report. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is ridiculous. We are totally aligned on buying as much compute as we can and working hard on it together every day,&#8221; the company told CNBC.<\/p>\n<p>The WSJ report &#8220;raises questions about whether the firm can fulfill its massive infrastructure obligations,&#8221; said trader Adam Crisafulli of Vital Knowledge in a morning note.<\/p>\n<p>The report is fueling worries that companies selling into the AI buildout, from data-center operators to chip designers, may be priced for growth that proves difficult to sustain if demand from key customers like OpenAI cools.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, competition in enterprise AI is intensifying.
