The $500 billion Stargate AI data center project announced by Trump in January 2025, involving OpenAI, SoftBank, Oracle, and MGX, has stalled after six months with scaled-back plans to build just one smaller data center by year-end. OpenAI is scrambling for computing capacity, turning to rival Google while securing 40% of global DRAM production through deals with Samsung and SK Hynix. Oracle has pushed delivery schedules from 2027 to 2028 due to labor shortages and supply constraints. This represents a major setback for what was positioned as the largest AI infrastructure project in history.
