OpenAI has partnered with Oracle to develop 4.5 gigawatts of additional data center capacity in the United States under the Stargate initiative. This large-scale buildout is said to boost the country’s AI capabilities, create over 100,000 jobs, and help meet OpenAI’s soaring demand for compute.
With this new phase, the total Stargate capacity under development will exceed 5 gigawatts, powered by more than 2 million chips. The new capacity follows OpenAI’s earlier announced plan at the White House to invest $500 billion in 10 gigawatts of AI infrastructure across the U.S. over the next four years. The company is expecting to surpass this target thanks to strong momentum with partners like Oracle and SoftBank.
