OpenAI联手甲骨文、软银,在美部署五大AI数据中心,总投资超4000亿美元加速“星门”计划

【美国,某月某日讯】 全球领先的人工智能研究机构OpenAI近日宣布,将联合科技巨头甲骨文(Oracle)和日本软银集团(SoftBank),在美国新建五个大型人工智能数据中心。此举是OpenAI庞大的AI基础设施平台“星门”(Stargate)计划的重要一环。据悉,随着这五大新站点的加入,以及德克萨斯州阿比林(Abilene)旗舰站点的持续运行和与CoreWeave的合作项目,“星门”计划的总规划容量将达到近7吉瓦,未来三年内总投资预计将超过4000亿美元。

这一里程碑式的进展,标志着OpenAI正以超出预期的速度,迈向其今年1月公布的5000亿美元、10吉瓦的AI基础设施建设承诺,并有望在2025年底前提前实现这一宏伟目标。

甲骨文深度参与,三新站点助力超5.5吉瓦容量

根据OpenAI透露,与甲骨文的合作是本次扩张的重中之重。早在今年7月,双方已达成协议,将在未来五年内共同投入超过3000亿美元,开发高达4.5吉瓦的“星门”额外容量。此次宣布的三个新站点——分别位于德克萨斯州沙克尔福德县(Shackelford County)、新墨西哥州多尼亚纳县(Doña Ana County),以及一个即将公布的中西部站点,加上阿比林旗舰站点附近额外的600兆瓦扩建潜力,预计将为“星门”计划贡献超过5.5吉瓦的容量。这些站点预计将直接创造超过2.5万个现场就业岗位,并间接带动全美数万个相关工作机会。

OpenAI首席执行官萨姆·奥尔特曼(Sam Altman)表示:“AI要兑现其承诺,就必须构建支撑它的计算能力。这种计算能力是确保每个人都能受益于AI并解锁未来突破的关键。我们正通过‘星门’计划朝着这个目标取得历史性进展,并迅速行动,不仅要兑现最初的承诺,还要为下一步奠定基础。”

甲骨文首席执行官克莱·马吉亚克(Clay Magouyrk)补充道:“甲骨文可靠、可扩展、安全的AI基础设施正在帮助OpenAI快速扩展业务。为了满足这一巨大需求,我们正以无与伦比的速度持续扩展OCI(甲骨文云基础设施)的足迹,以提供性能最佳、成本效益最高的AI训练和推理服务。”

软银助推另两站点,聚焦快速部署与成本效益

此外,OpenAI与软银集团的合作也将为“星门”计划贡献力量。在未来18个月内,软银将助力另外两个“星门”站点的开发,总容量可达1.5吉瓦,且未来有望扩展至数吉瓦。其中一个站点位于俄亥俄州洛兹敦(Lordstown),软银已在此破土动工,建设一个先进的数据中心,预计明年投入运营。另一个站点选址在德克萨斯州米拉姆县(Milam County),将由软银集团旗下公司SB Energy负责提供动力基础设施,以实现数据中心的快速建设。

软银集团董事长兼首席执行官孙正义表示:“‘星门’计划正利用软银创新的数据中心设计和能源专业知识,提供支撑AI未来的可扩展计算能力。我们与OpenAI、Arm以及我们的‘星门’合作伙伴一道,正在为AI造福人类的新时代铺平道路。”

全国筛选逾300提案,首批站点抢先落地

据悉,这五个新站点的选址是OpenAI、甲骨文和软银在今年1月启动的全国范围内严格筛选的结果。在超过30个州收到的300多份提案中,这些地点脱颖而出,成为首批入选者。OpenAI表示,随着其不断完成并超越在美国AI基础设施投资5000亿美元的初步承诺,未来还将公布更多美国境内的站点。

目前,由甲骨文负责建设的“星门”新站点将与已在甲骨文云基础设施(OCI)上运行并快速发展的阿比林旗舰园区协同作业。甲骨文已于今年6月开始交付首批NVIDIA GB200机架,并已利用新增的计算能力启动早期训练和推理工作负载,以推进OpenAI的下一代研究。

OpenAI强调,此次大规模投资和建设,不仅将转化成大规模的物理基础设施和全国各地的就业机会,更将生成解锁下一代AI突破所需的计算能力。这一系列举措得到了美国政府的鼎力支持,早在今年1月,OpenAI、甲骨文和软银与前总统特朗普在白宫共同宣布了“星门”计划的5000亿美元承诺,旨在刺激美国AI基础设施的投资。得益于彼时政府的领导和政策,这项工作进展迅速,并成功吸引了更多的合作伙伴。

OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank are announcing five new U.S. AI data center sites
under Stargate, OpenAI’s overarching AI infrastructure platform. The combined
capacity from these five new sites—along with our flagship site in Abilene,
Texas, and ongoing projects with CoreWeave—brings Stargate to nearly 7 gigawatts
of planned capacity and over $400 billion in investment over the next three
years. This puts us on a clear path to securing the full $500 billion,
10-gigawatt commitment we announced in January by the end of 2025, ahead of
schedule. 

In July, OpenAI and Oracle entered an agreement
[/index/stargate-advances-with-partnership-with-oracle/] to develop up to 4.5
gigawatts of additional Stargate capacity. This represents a partnership that
exceeds $300 billion between the two companies over the next five years. The
three new sites—located in Shackelford County, Texas; Doña Ana County, New
Mexico; and a site in the Midwest, which we expect to announce soon; combined
with an additional potential expansion of 600 megawatts near the flagship
Stargate site in Abilene, Texas—can deliver over 5.5 gigawatts of capacity.
Together, these sites are expected to create over 25,000 onsite jobs, and tens
of thousands of additional jobs across the U.S. We remain in the process of
evaluating additional sites.

The other two Stargate sites being announced today can scale to 1.5 gigawatts
over the next 18 months. These sites will be developed through a partnership by
SoftBank and OpenAI that can scale to multiple gigawatts of AI infrastructure.
One site is located in Lordstown, Ohio, where SoftBank has broken ground on an
advanced data center design which is on track to be operational next year. The
second site is located in Milam County, Texas, and will be developed in
partnership with SB Energy, a SoftBank Group company, which is providing powered
infrastructure for a fast-build data center site. Together, these sites
represent an important step in enabling faster deployment, greater scalability,
and improved cost efficiency—making high-performance compute more widely
accessible.

The five new sites were chosen through a rigorous nationwide process launched in
January. OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank reviewed over 300 proposals from more than
30 states. Today’s announcement marks the first set of selections, with
additional U.S. sites to come as we complete and surpass our initial commitment
to invest $500 billion in U.S. AI infrastructure.

The new Stargate sites being developed by Oracle will join the flagship Stargate
campus in Abilene, Texas, which is already up and running on Oracle Cloud
Infrastructure (OCI) and continues to progress rapidly. Oracle began delivering
the first NVIDIA GB200 racks in June. We have already started early training and
inference workloads, using this new capacity to advance OpenAI’s next-generation
research.

“AI can only fulfill its promise if we build the compute to power it. That
compute is the key to ensuring everyone can benefit from AI and to unlocking
future breakthroughs. We’re already making historic progress toward that goal
through Stargate and moving quickly not just to meet its initial commitment, but
to lay the foundation for what comes next.”—Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. 

“Oracle’s reliable, scalable, and secure AI infrastructure is helping OpenAI
rapidly scale its business. To meet this enormous demand, we continue to expand
OCI’s footprint at an unrivaled pace to deliver the most performant and
cost-effective AI training and inferencing.”—Clay Magouyrk, CEO of Oracle

“Stargate is harnessing SoftBank’s innovative data center design and energy
expertise to deliver the scalable compute that powers AI’s future. Together with
OpenAI, Arm, and our Stargate partners, we are paving the way for a new era
where AI advances humanity.”—Masayoshi Son, Chairman and CEO of SoftBank Group
Corp

OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank first announced the $500 billion Stargate
commitment in January at the White House alongside President Trump
[/index/announcing-the-stargate-project/], as part of a broader push to spur
investment in American AI infrastructure. Thanks to President Trump’s leadership
and the policies of his Administration, this effort has advanced more quickly
than expected and helped attract additional partners and momentum.

Together with Oracle, SoftBank, and our other partners, we’re turning a $500
billion, 10-gigawatt commitment into large-scale physical infrastructure, jobs
in communities across the country, and compute that will unlock the next
generation of AI breakthroughs.
