Daniel Farris Highlights Challenges Facing AI Data Center Expansion
October 7, 2026
Information Week
Foley & Lardner LLP partner Daniel Farris shared insights in the Information Week article, “The case for the disappearing data center,” on the growing public and regulatory focus on AI-powered data centers.
Farris emphasized, “Given AI’s prominence and the recent politicization of data centers, it is unlikely that large, high-density, high-performance computing data centers will be able to fade from public view any time soon.”
He also noted that concerns surrounding large AI data center developments may “bleed over” to more traditional colocation and hyperscale facilities that have “seamlessly integrated into communities across the country for decades.”
