OpenAI plans a post-midterm PR push that includes rebranding data centers as “AI compute campuses,” per Axios.

Summary

OpenAI is preparing a public relations campaign for after the U.S. midterm elections, according to Axios, as Democrats are expected to win back the House and possibly the Senate. The company's chief global affairs officer, Chris Lehane, said the midterms will be “a bit of a movie trailer for what you’re going to see in 2028,” when he expects AI to be the defining issue in the presidential election. OpenAI's proposals include developing AI “speed limits,” helping people see AI as empowering in daily life, pushing the U.S. to help set global standards, and rebranding data centers as “AI compute campuses.” Lehane called the debate around data centers “good and healthy,” saying communities should hold companies accountable so they truly benefit from such projects.
