A $250 billion AI boost? Nvidia reportedly in talks to back OpenAI’s Ohio data centre project
Nvidia is in discussions to provide around $250 billion in financial guarantees for OpenAI as part of a massive data centre initiative in southern Ohio, marking one of the largest financing efforts yet tied to the artificial intelligence boom in the United States.
According to a Wall Street Journal report citing people familiar with the matter, Nvidia’s backing would help OpenAI lease a 10-gigawatt data centre campus being developed by SoftBank.
