Huo Xing Cai Jing reports, according to Gelonghui citing insiders, Leopold Aschenbrenner, a former OpenAI researcher, has re-entered the investment scene just days after his hedge fund neared collapse, investing $400 million in a private company. This investment, completed on Tuesday, marks the first sign of how Aschenbrenner is recovering after his AI-themed hedge fund, Situational Awareness, nearly collapsed last week due to margin calls from multiple Wall Street lenders. This additional investment follows a $100 million stake the fund had previously taken in the same company last month. It remains unclear which company in his private equity portfolio received this additional funding.
