  Voices: Michigan’s AI data center push needs public scorecard

  Gleb Tsipursky argues that Michigan should create a public scorecard to measure whether AI and data center companies are meeting the commitments in the state’s affordability pledge.

  • The opinion piece says Michigan’s AI data center pledge should be made measurable in public by tracking whether companies pay infrastructure costs, add new power, manage water use, and deliver local hiring and training commitments.
  • It cites Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s July announcement of the Michigan Affordability and Responsible Growth Pledge and frames the article as commentary/opinion, not a new policy announcement; it also references a Sept. 11 federal appeals court ruling on the J.H. Campbell coal plant in West Olive as background on grid reliability and cost.
