OpenAI wants to win over data-center opponents by calling them ‘compute campuses’ and promising local benefits

OpenAI has a new name for the loud, dull, gray buildings Americans don’t really want as their next-door neighbors, and it’s calling them “compute campuses.” Along with the rebrand comes a list of promises. On Thursday, the company published a National Community Compact, pledging to pay its own energy costs, disclose what its facilities do to the places around them, and give residents a say in how future sites it owns and operates are built.
