Those fears helped wipe about $2.5 trillion off the U.S. stock market on Thursday.\n\nTo ease local opposition, OpenAI will stop using non-disclosure agreements with public officials when discussing future sites and will give residents access to construction plans and their expected effects. Friar said the company has to keep investing to meet customer demand.\n\nOpenAI's business grew 70% quarter over quarter in the third quarter, with enterprise demand doubling, and the company is raising fresh capital. Google is separately planning a $17 billion data center in Wyoming, according to Bloomberg News, while some investors question whether Anthropic can hold to a November listing."}}
