This blog post from OpenAI about their data center buildout — called Stargate — sounds a little like a response to the mistakes xAI made in Memphis:

Stargate is a partnership with communities, and we can only achieve our mission by being good neighbors.

There’s also more on their approach to the electrical grid and water. All this new infrastructure seems to be moving along quickly.

@bax Yep. I get the initial concern for the environment and I shared it, but it turns out we were working with old data, especially on water. Everything is a trade-off, of course. Eventually we’ll have thoughtful regulation again to balance things.
