OpenAI Stargate UK hype unravels as £30bn AI plan stalls
The Guardian reports that OpenAI never met local authorities at Cobalt Park, a flagship site for its paused Stargate UK data centre project, despite UK government claims of up to £30bn in incoming AI investment. Freedom of information responses suggest £20bn of the touted investment was purely hypothetical, raising questions over the substance of the deal and Britain’s AI industrial strategy.
