Meta Platforms plans to invest as much as $US65 billion ($103 billion) on projects related to artificial intelligence in 2025, including building a giant new data centre and increasing hiring in AI teams, chief executive officer Mark Zuckerberg said on Friday (Saturday AEDT).
The company plans to use the funds to build a data centre “so large that it would cover a significant part of Manhattan”, Mr Zuckerberg said in a Facebook post. Meta plans to bring about a gigawatt of computing power online in 2025 and is projected to end the year with more than 1.3 million graphics processing units, he said.
