As part of Microsoft's last investment in 2023 OpenAI agreed to exclusively use Azure for all their computing needs. I'm not sure what the time limit on that agreement is, but at least for now OpenAI cannot build their own datacenters even if they wanted to.

Microsoft restricted their computing needs provider, but they could have allowed them to build their own datacenters.
