Overview

  • Financial Times reports that OpenAI has a five-year plan to support roughly US$1 trillion in AI investment by expanding revenue streams, services and financing options.
  • OpenAI’s multiyear Broadcom agreement targets custom chips and networking with about 10 GW of data-center capacity, starting rack deployments in H2 2026 and aiming to complete hardware implementation by end-2029.
  • Google will invest US$15 billion over five years to develop a major AI and data-center hub in Visakhapatnam, described by the company as its largest AI center outside the United States.
  • Sam Altman said his goal is to make AI inexpensive and widely available worldwide, highlighting data-center partnerships and Stargate projects to distribute computing capacity.
  • New research underscores uneven readiness: IBM finds only 15% of Brazilian firms use AI at scale, while Stanford and Harvard studies link generative AI adoption to declines in entry-level hiring for young workers in the United States.
