South Loop AI data center approved without public knowledge
Lindsay Freiberger, Assistant Arts & Life Editor for The DePaulia and Senior Journalism Major at DePaul, joins Lisa Dent to talk about her investigation into an AI data center being built in the South Loop. The location was originally planned to be an esports arena, but through the Freedom of Information Act, Freiberger found that instead of an esports arena, a small-scale AI data center called ‘HyderVault’ is set to begin construction.
