OpenAI is embarking on a massive expansion of its AI infrastructure, committing approximately $1 trillion this year alone, according to sources. The company’s strategic partnerships with chip manufacturers AMD and Nvidia, as well as data center provider Oracle, aim to secure an unprecedented 20 gigawatts of computing power. This substantial investment, slated to come online by 2026, will fuel the training and deployment of OpenAI’s increasingly sophisticated AI models. The sheer scale of OpenAI’s commitment raises critical questions about the potential economic ramifications and the balance between innovation and risk.
