bit_user The article said: To that end, OpenAI says every Stargate site "will have its own locally tailored Stargate Community plan," which will be driven "by community input and local concerns." It's a page right out of the standard big industry playbook to setup some sort of community liaison/committee and even to have open meetings. However, merely committing to accept input and hear concerns doesn't mean they will actually do anything meaningfully different, in the end. It's good for optics, but remains to be seen what impact it'll have. I also don't trust any supposed commitments to subsidizing infrastructure. Maybe they do this while the Eye of Sauron is upon them, but perhaps they start to relax this policy, as time goes on & political winds shift. There's even the possibility that they end up just subsidizing the energy cost of the communities where their datacenters are located, but not everywhere that's affected by the cost of the capacity upgrades they require. The grid is a large network and can pull energy from a couple states away, where it could be harder to trace back to them. Reply
