Nvidia is in talks to back OpenAI's Ohio data center with $250 billion in financing - qz.com

Nvidia is reportedly in discussions to provide up to $250 billion in financing to support an OpenAI data center project in southern Ohio.
The chipmaker's backing would help OpenAI lease the facility, described as a 10-gigawatt project.
The Ohio development is being handled by an energy subsidiary of SoftBank.
The potential deal underscores the growing scale of investment tied to artificial intelligence infrastructure and the deepening relationships among major technology and financing players.
The arrangement links three prominent names in the AI buildout — Nvidia as a hardware supplier and potential financier, OpenAI as the operator, and SoftBank as the developer — around a single large-scale computing site.
