JPMorgan Chase & CoJPMorgan is terminating its financing relationship with Situational Awareness after the fund's massive AI-investment losses.

JPMorgan Chase is ending its financing for Situational Awareness, an artificial intelligence-focused hedge fund run by former OpenAI researcher Leopold Ashenbrenner. The move follows massive losses on his AI-related investments that brought the fund to the brink of collapse, people familiar with the matter told Reuters on the 11th. In July, Situational Awareness sold most of its listed shares to Citadel after its leveraged bets suffered huge losses amid a global semiconductor stock rout. According to the people, JPMorgan, one of the fund's main lenders, notified it of the termination of the financing relationship following the massive losses. Other major U.S. financial firms, including Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and Bank of America, continue to act as brokers for Situational Awareness.
