WSJ：美国半数在建 AI 数据中心或面临地方更严审查
数据中心选址突然成了政治问题，Meta 说巨头都在考虑出海，OpenAI 赶紧承诺不签保密协议，局势变化挺快的。
据 WSJ 报道，民主党赢得众议院、参议院和多个州长席位后，美国约一半拟新增的 AI 数据中心项目可能面临更严格的地方审查。德州和俄亥俄州此前是数据中心建设的安全选择，现在可能在居民获得供水和电价保障前暂停施工。Meta 总裁 Dina Powell McCormick 表示，各大超大规模云厂商都在考虑把数据中心建到美国境外。OpenAI 数日内作出回应，承诺在数据中心交易中不签保密协议，并保证居民不承担项目电费。参议员 Elizabeth Warren 预计执掌参议院银行委员会，她曾就中国芯片销售寻求 Nvidia CEO 黄仁勋出席听证被拒，上任后将拥有传票权。
WSJ: Half of proposed US AI data center additions could face tougher local scrutiny after Democrats won the House, Senate and key governorships.
Texas and Ohio, once safe harbors for builders, could halt construction until residents get assurances on water supplies and electricity prices.
Meta President Dina Powell McCormick said every hyperscaler is now considering building outside the US.
OpenAI answered within days by committing to avoid nondisclosure agreements in data center deals and to keep residents from paying for the projects’ electricity.
Congressional Democrats are expected to use hearings and subpoenas to probe AI safety incidents.
Senator Elizabeth Warren, expected to chair Senate Banking, has sought a hearing with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang over China chip sales, which he declined, and her gavel would bring subpoena power.
