Openai plans To build five new Data centers In the United States as part of the Stargate initiative, the company announced on Tuesday. The sites that are developed in partnership with Oracle and SoftbankBring the current Stargate planned power to nearly 7 GB-the same power as a large number of power Nuclear reactors.
