Oracle's Race Against Time for OpenAI's Data Center

Oracle Corporation is reportedly under significant pressure to complete the construction of a sprawling data center in Abilene, Texas, designated for OpenAI Inc.'s use. According to a recent report by The Information, the facility, which is supposed to be as large as 17 football fields, remains unfinished and unoccupied.

A Strategic Partnership in the AI Race

This development comes as part of a broader collaboration between Oracle, OpenAI, and SoftBank Group Corp., under the United States President Donald Trump-initiated project Stargate. The ambitious project aims to bolster the country's standing in the artificial intelligence (AI) sector, with the companies committing to invest a staggering $500 billion over the next four years.
