## Summary

OpenAI chief global affairs officer Chris Lehane told Axios the company is preparing a post-midterm PR push, including rebranding data centers as "AI compute campuses." Lehane also floated AI "speed limits" and a U.S. role in setting global standards, and said communities should hold companies accountable for benefits from data center projects.
