Silicon Valley executives, some who have long had contentious relationships with President-elect Donald Trump, are pledging money and support to Trump’s incoming administration.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman intends to make a $1 million personal donation to Trump’s inauguration fund, the company confirmed to NPR on Friday.

It follows news that Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, has already contributed $1 million to the fund. And Amazon has also promised a $1 million infusion into Trump’s inauguration coffers.
