OpenAI has announced a partnership with Oracle to expand the Stargate project by developing a 4.5 gigawatt data center. This initiative is part of a broader vision to deploy 10 gigawatts of compute capacity across the U.S. and aims to power over 2 million AI chips. CEO Sam Altman highlighted the project's scale and ambition, which has now surpassed the original $500 billion commitment made earlier this year. The announcement coincides with Elon Musk's ambitious plans for his AI firm xAI, aiming for substantial advancements in AI compute power.
