Alright, picture this: OpenAI just announced they're expanding something called Stargate to Michigan. Stargate! I'm sorry, did we skip the part where we tell people we're building interdimensional portals? Because that's a pretty big buried lede. "Oh yeah, we're putting a gigawatt campus in Michigan. Also, we named it after a sci-fi franchise about traveling to alien worlds." Nothing to see here,...
