OpenAI Newsroom announced new commitments for communities hosting AI infrastructure: they should have a say in how it's built and share in the benefits, alongside policy proposals for responsible AI infrastructure.
User mallow610 pushed back publicly at @sama and @thsottiaux, arguing this won't counter negative public sentiment toward AI: large investments and real quality-of-life improvements are needed — sufficient electricity, water, heat, and no noise pollution in housing communities are non-negotiables.
