Stargate: OpenAI's $400 Billion AI Data Center Plan

OpenAI's Stargate project aims to build five massive AI data centers across the US, costing $400 billion and consuming more power than New York City. This ambitious expansion is driving an AI infrastructure boom, with tech giants like Meta and Microsoft racing to keep up. The project's energy demands are staggering, potentially reaching 10 gigawatts and $500 billion in costs, raising questions about sustainability and the environmental impact of AI's growing energy appetite. By 2030, global AI data centers could demand 327 gigawatts, transforming communities and sparking debate about the future of AI and energy.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
