OpenAI’s planned data center in Abu Dhabi would be bigger than Monaco


OpenAI's planned data center in Abu Dhabi would be bigger than Monaco, according to a report from Bloomberg.

OpenAI is poised to help develop a staggering 5-gigawatt data center campus in Abu Dhabi, positioning the company as a primary anchor tenant in what could become one of the world’s largest AI infrastructure projects, according to a new Bloomberg report. The facility would reportedly span an astonishing 10 square miles and consume power equivalent to five nuclear reactors, dwarfing any existing AI infrastructure announced by OpenAI or its competitors. These concerns focused on G42’s “ active relationships ” with blacklisted entities, including Huawei and Beijing Genomics Institute, as well as ties to individuals connected to China’s intelligence efforts.
