TNW reports Altman attributing stalled European data centres to poor benefit messaging rather than grid limits.
Sam Altman stated that AI developers have fumbled communicating the technology's benefits. The Next Web covered his remarks at Tech Week, noting $130B of data centres stalled. Altman pointed to poor explanations as a factor in backlash. In Europe the article identifies grid capacity and filed energy data as the actual constraints. Denmark shows 60GW of projects queued against 7GW of peak demand. The report frames these infrastructure limits, not public sentiment, as the binding issue for new facilities.
