Record Notes

This record is now treated as the OpenAI Stargate U.S. infrastructure program, not as a single 5 GW Microsoft/OpenAI supercomputer site. The legacy 5 GW value came from 2024 reporting on a proposed Microsoft/OpenAI supercomputer concept. OpenAI and SoftBank announced Stargate in January 2025 as a U.S. AI infrastructure company intending to invest USD 500 billion over four years, starting in Texas and evaluating more U.S. campuses. In September 2025, OpenAI said five new U.S. sites plus Abilene and CoreWeave projects brought Stargate to nearly 7 GW of planned capacity and more than USD 400 billion in investment, on a path toward the full 10 GW commitment. In 2026, OpenAI described the U.S. Stargate target as securing 10 GW of AI infrastructure by 2029. ADCI removes the selected 5,000 MW value from this aggregate program record because site-level Stargate capacity should be tracked on specific campus records where possible, and selecting a program MW here would double-count U.S. Stargate site records.
