OpenAI is embarking on a multistate tour to advocate for significant infrastructure investments in AI, aiming to appeal to the incoming Trump administration. This initiative, named 'Innovating for America,' seeks to position OpenAI as a populist ally in the AI sector, contrasting its previous alignment with Democratic policies. The campaign will highlight the potential economic benefits of building data centers and upgrading the electric grid to support AI development.
The tour will kick off with an event featuring CEO Sam Altman, who faces a more skeptical audience than in past engagements.

The company emphasizes that AI advancements can lead to equitable economic opportunities across various states, challenging the notion that AI benefits only a select few.
