โOpenAI is planning a 1400 Acre, $20 billion campus for Effingham County. Negotiations have been done privately. NDAs signed. Residents sidelined. Meanwhile, concerns mount over the noise, the cost of the electricity and the local impacts.
โOpenAI claims the benefits will be enormous, and the impacts minimal. But how can we trust them when they wonโt listen to residents' concerns? What will the water impacts really be? How will electricity prices really be impacted?
โThis is about more than just whether the claimed impacts are good. It's about whether OpenAI can be trusted to deliver the benefits promised, and not impact our communities in a negative way. It's about why one of the largest companies in the world gets tax abatements while regular Americans struggle.
