Talking point: ChatGPT could soon be run from Abilene—Oracle is reportedly renting Crusoe’s data centre, and OpenAI will buy processing power from Oracle as part of the firms’ US$500 billion Stargate Project. The first two buildings will come online this year, with the other six scheduled to follow in mid-2026. Data centres are measured by how much power they consume, and Crusoe’s Texas campus would use 1.2 gigawatts once completed, making it one of the world’s largest concentrations of compute. OpenAI on Wednesday also said it acquired IO, a startup founded by Jony Ive for US$6.5 billion. The former Apple rockstar designer will develop AI hardware for the ChatGPT maker.
