OpenAI pledges to pay for data center power after election highlights AI concerns

Summary

OpenAI published a set of commitments on Thursday, two days after voters rejected AI data center expansion at the polls, pledging to pay the full cost of powering its data centers. For data centers it owns and operates, the company said it will solicit community input, publish construction plans and avoid non-disclosure agreements with public officials. It also urged policymakers to enact similar commitments as laws.
