This level of investment highlights how companies don’t just develop AI models—they now need massive dedicated infrastructure: data centres, specialised hardware, cooling, power, networking. Analysts say that AI’s shift from experimental to mission-critical is driving this build-out. From an IT standpoint this means: expect booming demand for high-end GPUs/accelerators, data centre services, edge/cloud hybrid solutions, and possible new vendor opportunities. For someone like you planning IT solutions, it’s a reminder that infrastructure capability and scalability matter more than ever.
