Iran threatens OpenAI data center in Abu Dhabi

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a threat against OpenAI's planned Stargate data center in Abu Dhabi. The IRGC stated they would pursue the "complete and utter annihilation" of US-linked energy and technology companies in the region if the United States attacks Iran's power plants. The threat was accompanied by an image of OpenAI's $30 billion Stargate facility, which is currently under construction in the United Arab Emirates. This development highlights the geopolitical tensions surrounding major AI infrastructure projects and their potential vulnerability.
