OpenAI touts AI infrastructure ‘blueprint’ to outcompete China, bolster economy under incoming Trump admin

OpenAI has shared a new plan for building up AI infrastructure, hoping the incoming Trump administration and Congress will take it seriously. The idea is to help the U.S. stay ahead of competitors like China in the AI race. OpenAI argues that investing in AI infrastructure could create tens of thousands of skilled jobs, boost productivity and GDP, modernize the power grid (including nuclear energy), build a top-tier network of semiconductor factories, and spark a new wave of AI-driven businesses.
