OpenAI is expanding the size of its data centers and increasing its spending budget in this area. According to sources, OpenAI has raised its hashrate spending forecast to 2030 from around $600 billion earlier this year to around $750 billion. This growth reflects that OpenAI is reaching new agreements with cloud computing service providers to quickly obtain the enormous computing power it needs to develop and run AI models. OpenAI said on Wednesday that it will invest $20 billion to launch a data center project called “Camellia” in Effingham County, Georgia. Sachin Carty, vice president of computing strategy at OpenAI, said the company has signed a contract with Georgia Power to receive 3.2 gigawatts of electricity between 2028 and 2032, and the project cost is expected to exceed US$30 billion. This could make the facility one of OpenAI's largest data centers to date. According to people familiar with the matter, OpenAI hired Brent Mayo to help ensure that the data center project progresses as planned. He is one of the main architects of Musk's data center construction project.
