OpenAI says it will minimize water use and pay for energy infrastructure upgrades needed to power its data centers. "We're being good neighbors," the company said, directly addressing the growing opposition to AI projects amid rising utility bills.
"We commit to paying our own way on energy, so that our operations don't increase your electricity prices," OpenAI said. The company promised to work with local communities to minimize the impact of its Stargate data centers. OpenAI was not specific but said plans could involve securing its own energy supplies or paying for local grid upgrades.
