President Trump announced on Tuesday that Openai, Oracle and SoftBank are cooperating in a project to direct more than $ 100 billion towards computer infrastructure that will operate artificial intelligence in the United States.
“This will guarantee the future of technology,” Trump told a White House press conference. “What we want to do is that we want to keep it in this country. China is a competitor and others are competitors.”
The Trio of Tech Giants team is expected to commit $ 100 billion for the initiative, and it is called the Stargate project, and plans to invest a total of $ 500 billion in AI’s infrastructure over the next four years, Openai He said in a blog post. Trump claimed that the effort will quickly create more than 100,000 American jobs, describing it as “a resounding declaration of confidence in the capabilities of America in the shadow of a new president.”
While companies are competing worldwide to create new products, Amnesty International, the initiative emphasizes the possibility of technical jobs to feed the American economy. The artificial intelligence race increases demand all over the world for data centers, and facilities that contain home computing equipment such as servers used to process the information set for training and preserving artificial intelligence systems.
However, the questions about how Stargate comes out. Elon Musk, who has emerged in recent months as one of Trump’s close consultants and heads the newly formed government competence section, challenges the initiative publicly.
“They don’t actually have money,” Musk posted on Tuesday on the X social media platform, which was previously Twitter. “Softbank has less than $ 10 billion guaranteed. I have it on good salad.”
On Wednesday, the CEO of Openai Germans launched X. “Error, you definitely know,” books. “Do you want to come to visit the first site really? This is great for the country. I realize that what is great for the country is not always the perfect for your companies, but in your new role, I hope you will mostly put [America] Firstly.”
Musk, who runs a company for artificial intelligence, XAI, but was also an early investor in Openai, involved in a legal battle with Openai and accused its headquarters in San Francisco a company To put profits on “the benefit of humanity”.
While artificial intelligence is used to use to process a limitless set of challenges, including fighting forest fires and diagnosing diseases, concerns about the effect of technology on jobs, people safety and other issues are still still. Trump reduced such fears, and canceled the executive order for 2023 by former President Biden, who aims to put safety handrails around artificial intelligence.
Besides SoftBank, Openai and Oracle, the Technology Fund in the United Arab Emirates called MGX will provide funding for Stargate, according to Openai. Masayoshi Son, CEO of Softbank, will be the head of Stargate. Among the technology partners are ARM, Microsoft and Nvidia.
Larry Ellson, the first chief data centers in Stargate in Texas, said. It is not clear whether the new data centers will be built in California as part of this effort, but the Openai Blog said that Stargate is looking at potential sites throughout the United States.
“I am pleased because we are doing it in the United States of America,” Al -Taman said at the press conference. “I think this will be the most important project for this era.”
