OpenAI, Oracle, and the 4.5 Gigawatt Hunger Games

Title: a16z 5th Edition Pt. 4: No-Code, Just Vibes & the Top of the Class

OpenAI’s rumored $300 billion cloud pact with Oracle isn’t just another tech headline, it’s a sci-fi-sized bet on the future of AI. Host Emily Laird is talking 4.5 gigawatts of data center capacity (that’s two Hoover Dams of electricity), millions of GPUs, and enough water to make Vegas sweat. In this episode, we break down what “Stargate” really means: the billion-dollar backroom deals, the looming power crisis, and why grid stability might matter more than chips in the AI race.
