[Amid opposition, OpenAI will change the way data center projects are promoted] On November 5th, 0penAI stated that it will avoid using confidentiality agreements when negotiating data center projects and ensure that local residents do not have to pay for the electricity required for these projects. These commitments are part of a framework that OpenAI believes should be incorporated into relevant laws governing the expansion of artificial intelligence. In a framework called the National Community Compact, OpenAI promises to provide clear data on the impact that issues such as noise, water and energy consumption may have on communities. The company has also committed to reducing power consumption during peak periods, returning power to the grid, and setting local hiring targets if local labor conditions allow. OpenAI will also publicly report on progress in implementing these commitments.
