Meta Platforms has announced its intention to invest $600 billion in American infrastructure by 2028, with a focus on constructing “industry-leading AI data centres.”
The corporation officially announced that the investment is to enhance AI technologies, generate employment, and bolster local economies. Meta announced that it is “constructing industry-leading AI data centres in the US” to assist America in preserving its “technological advantage”. The business emphasised that these facilities are crucial for developing what it refers to as “personal super intelligence for all.”
A Reuter’s article indicates that the current promise follows CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s prior announcement to President Donald Trump regarding the $600 billion investment. Meta announced its commitment to strengthening communities through sustainable construction initiatives and financial support to local educational institutions and nonprofit organisations.
Recent initiatives encompass a $27 billion financed data centre in Louisiana and a $1.5 billion facility in Texas, according to the Reuters story. The company anticipates substantially increased capital expenditures next year as it expedites its AI infrastructure growth throughout the US.
