OpenAI unveils community policies for data centers, including no NDAs with public officials

OpenAI announced Nov. 5 new policies for its data center sites after the midterms: no NDAs with public officials on future site talks, and public construction plans covering traffic, noise and lighting, per Reuters. Unite.AI adds it will pay for the electricity it uses. Reuters says an Ohio site is expected to create 2,500 long-term jobs. TopFive could not open OpenAI's page.
