OpenAI Raises Infrastructure Spending to $750B, Launches $20B Georgia Data Center

Skynet Chance (+0.03%): Massive compute buildout expands the raw capacity available to train ever-more-powerful frontier models, marginally increasing long-term risk of systems whose behavior outpaces alignment and oversight.

Skynet Date (+0 days): Aggressive, well-funded infrastructure expansion and a fast-execution construction hire modestly accelerate the pace at which large-scale AI capabilities—and their attendant risks—could materialize.

AGI Progress (+0.02%): Securing gigawatt-scale compute removes a key physical bottleneck to scaling, a lever widely considered central to advancing model capabilities toward AGI, though this is investment rather than a capability breakthrough.

AGI Date (+0 days): A 25% larger spending commitment and dedicated multi-gigawatt data centers shorten the timeline to training frontier-scale systems, though power availability slipping to 2028–2032 tempers the near-term acceleration.
