OpenAI wants to open 5-gigawatt AI data centers in different US cities, Bloomberg reports.

The AI company's CEO, Sam Altman , supposedly pitched the plan after a recent meeting with the Biden administration.

If approved, the data centers would generate " thousands of new jobs" and help cement the US as an AI leader.
