OpenAI is seeking locations across 16 U.S. states to establish a series of large data centers for its AI technology, expanding from its Texas base to support the Stargate project, which is backed by former President Donald Trump. The initiative, a collaboration with Oracle and Softbank, aims to invest between $100 billion and $500 billion in developing infrastructure for AI. OpenAI is prioritizing sites with access to essential utilities and has requested proposals for land while also considering the environmental impact of energy usage, though it hasn't explicitly stressed the use of renewable energy sources.
