Projects
The build-out board: the largest AI infrastructure projects under way — campuses, power deals and national programs — with reported scale and status.
Field notes
Construction is the honest scoreboard of the AI race: announcements are cheap, but concrete, turbines and interconnection agreements are not. Every record here lists reported capacity with its basis — read the labels, not just the gigawatts.
