OpenAI to Launch Major PR Push: Renaming Data Centers as AI Compute Parks
OpenAI is preparing a public relations offensive aimed at Washington and voters. According to Axios, the company plans to launch a large-scale publicity campaign after Tuesday's U.S. midterm elections, led by Chief Global Affairs Officer Chris Lehane. He views the midterm elections as a "trailer" for the 2028 presidential election and believes AI will become a core campaign issue. Amid tightening regulation and public opinion, OpenAI wants to define the narrative first and wage a defensive battle.
