What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Oracle issued a force majeure on Project Jupiter, freeing the company from debt liability due to unexpected circumstances preventing the data center's continuation. Reports indicate Oracle's $18 billion debt is currently under strain. The issues are attributed to market saturation in AI products and concerns that Oracle is overcommitted to data center construction.
