SALINE, Michigan – OpenAI has begun construction of its massive "Stargate" data center in Saline, following a groundbreaking ceremony attended by CEO Sam Altman that formally launched the project. The facility represents a $45 billion investment and is planned to deliver one gigawatt of power to support future artificial intelligence training and deployment, highlighting the rapidly growing infrastructure demands of advanced AI systems. The Stargate Michigan site is part of a wider build-out of computing capacity as AI labs race to secure the resources required for next-generation models and large-scale AI services, making the project a key element of OpenAI’s long-term technical strategy. At the event, Altman acknowledged that the industry has done a poor job explaining how AI could affect employment and said people are right to feel anxious about the technology’s impact on jobs, marking a notable shift in tone from previous comments by the company’s leadership. Alongside the data center announcement, OpenAI said it will provide $45 million in Codex credits to support more than 400,000 students across Michigan. The credits aim to integrate AI development tools into classrooms and training programs, broadening access to software that allows users to experiment with and build on OpenAI’s coding and AI capabilities.
