The Open Artificial Intelligence Research Center (OpenAI) of the United States is seeking future data center sites in the Asia-Pacific region. An anonymous insider disclosed that the chief strategy officer of OpenAI will visit Japan, South Korea, Australia, India and Singapore next week.
Bloomberg reported that OpenAI has just signed a cooperation agreement with the United Arab Emirates to assist ABU Dhabi in building a large-scale data center project. The Asia-Pacific region is the region with the most data centers in the world. Alphabet Inc., the parent company of Google in the United States, Microsoft, and Meta, the parent company of Facebook, have all formulated expansion plans. If OpenAI joins, it will make the competition for artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure construction in the Asia-Pacific region even more intense.
It is reported that Jason Kwon, the Chief Strategy Officer of OpenAI, will travel to the Asia-Pacific region to meet with government officials and potential private partners in the region to discuss the construction of AI infrastructure and the application of OpenAI software.
A person familiar with the matter who requested anonymity as the news has not been made public disclosed that Jason Kwon will visit countries such as Japan, South Korea, Australia, India and Singapore next week.
This trip is part of a broader plan announced by OpenAI earlier this month. OpenAI hopes to collaborate with governments around the world to jointly build AI capabilities rooted in democratic values and open markets. This start-up company will also assist various countries in customizing OpenAI products based on local languages and needs, and plans to initially focus on 10 cross-regional partnerships.
However, OpenAI's plan also faces resistance from the US government, as it is concerned about sharing cutting-edge hardware and technology with overseas countries, especially those closely related to China such as the United Arab Emirates.
The governments of the United States and the United Arab Emirates are currently negotiating the details of an AI cooperation agreement, which includes measures involving China.
