On February 21, during a public event held in New Delhi, India, Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, delivered a pointed critique of Elon Musk’s proposal to “relocate data centers to space.” Altman remarked that, considering the present state of technology and associated costs, the concept is both “absurd and laughable.” He emphasized the exorbitant expenses related to launching and sustaining such facilities in space, asserting that large-scale implementation is improbable within this century. His comments drew laughter from the audience.
