report<\/a>.<\/p>\nSaylor discussed the process during an interview with The Diary of a CEO. He said the AI chatbot helped him examine financing structures that Strategy later used to raise billions of dollars from investors.<\/p>\n
\u201cAI helped me create $15 billion,\u201d Saylor said.<\/p>\n
The figure reflects capital raised through Strategy\u2019s preferred stock products and related financing rather than revenue generated directly by ChatGPT. The AI tool helped Saylor work through the structure, while investors, underwriters and company executives carried out the offerings.<\/p>\n
Strategy has built a group of Bitcoin-backed preferred securities, including STRC, STRK, STRF and STRD. The products give investors different combinations of dividends, volatility and exposure to the company\u2019s Bitcoin-heavy balance sheet.<\/p>\n

Saylor urges workers to \u2018harness the robots\u2019<\/h2>\n
Saylor said AI is changing how individuals and companies create value. In his view, workers should focus on asking better questions and using machines to pursue ideas that would otherwise require more time or expertise.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t try to outwork the robots,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
His comments frame AI as a tool that can expand human decision-making rather than merely replace repetitive work. Saylor argued that future entrepreneurs would gain an advantage by combining human judgment and creativity with the speed of AI systems.<\/p>\n
The claim also provides a practical example of generative AI being used in U.S. corporate finance. However, ChatGPT-generated proposals still require legal, accounting, and regulatory review before a publicly traded company can use them to sell securities.<\/p>\n
Strategy\u2019s preferred shares carry different dividend obligations and risk profiles. Their performance remains closely connected to the company\u2019s ability to manage its capital structure and its large Bitcoin position.<\/p>\n
Strategy adjusts its Bitcoin treasury policy<\/h2>\n
Saylor\u2019s comments come as Strategy has shown greater flexibility in managing its Bitcoin holdings.<\/p>\n
An Aug. 3 Securities and Exchange Commission filing showed that the company sold 1,638 BTC for approximately $104.73 million between July 27 and Aug. 2. Strategy used $52.4 million to fund preferred stock dividends and $52.3 million to repurchase STRC shares.<\/p>\n
The sale reduced Strategy\u2019s holdings to 842,138 BTC as of Aug. 2. The company reported an aggregate purchase cost of $63.51 billion and an average acquisition price of $75,419 per Bitcoin.<\/p>\n
On Aug. 5, Lookonchain identified another transfer of 1,030 BTC, worth roughly $66.14 million, from wallets it associated with Strategy. Strategy had not confirmed that the transfer represented another sale, and no later SEC filing had reduced its reported holdings when this article was prepared.<\/p>\n
Strategy expands beyond Bitcoin financing<\/h2>\n
Strategy is also adding employee benefits as it develops its broader corporate operations. On Aug. 5, the company joined the Invest America Business Pledge and committed to contributing $250 annually to Trump Accounts for eligible children of its U.S. employees.<\/p>\n
Eligible children born on or after Jan. 1, 2025, will also receive a one-time $1,000 company contribution matching the U.S. government\u2019s initial deposit.<\/p>\n
The next test for Strategy will be whether its preferred stock model can continue attracting investors while supporting dividend payments and protecting its Bitcoin holdings. Saylor\u2019s account of using ChatGPT shows how AI influenced the model\u2019s design, but its long-term performance will depend on capital-market demand, Bitcoin prices and Strategy\u2019s execution.<\/p>\n
