Nvidia is reportedly in discussions with OpenAI to guarantee $250 billion in data center funding. That’s according to a report Monday (July 27) by the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), which calls the proposed deal one of the most ambitious to date in the American AI boom. The guarantee from Nvidia would help OpenAI lease a 10-gigawatt project in southeastern Ohio, sources familiar with the matter told the WSJ.
