OpenAI 的 1GW 密歇根园区旨在证明 AI 带来的是工会就业而非账单
openai 在密歇根州破土动工建设 1gw 数据中心,承诺提供 2,500 个工会工作岗位和 4500 万美元的学生额度,以证明 ai 基础设施能使当地社区受益。
openai began construction on 'the barn', a massive 1gw data center campus in saline, michigan, alongside governor gretchen whitmer and partners oracle and related digital. the facility is designed with a closed-loop cooling system and guarantees that infrastructure costs won't increase local electricity rates, while creating over 2,500 union construction jobs and 450 permanent positions. openai pledged $45 million in api credits for michigan students and $10 million for local community centers, positioning this project as a blueprint for labor-friendly, politically resilient ai infrastructure development.
