OpenAI’s Sam Altman Plans to Spend Trillions on AI Infrastructure
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told Bloomberg he expects to invest trillions of dollars over time to build the infrastructure necessary for advancing artificial intelligence. Such investments would go toward data centers, chips, and energy resources to meet the growing demands of AI development. Altman said while raising that scale of capital is challenging, OpenAI is exploring several options, including partnerships and long-term strategic deals. This ambition underscores OpenAI’s continued push to scale safely and keep pace with the rapidly expanding generative AI market.
Massive infrastructure spending signals the next phase in AI’s industrialization, with implications across chips, data centers, and energy sectors.
