Meta Eyes $200B AI Data Center Project
Posted: 28th Feb 2025
Meta is reportedly exploring plans to establish extensive data centers for its AI ambitions. Sources say discussions focus on sites in Louisiana, Wyoming, or Texas, with investment reaching $200 billion. Despite this, a Meta spokesperson dismissed these reports as “pure speculation,” emphasizing that existing data center plans are publicly available.
Adding to the intrigue, Mark Zuckerberg recently announced Meta’s intention to allocate $60 billion to a data center in Louisiana this year. This center will support LLAMA 4, Meta’s latest AI model, and is expected to be “so large it would cover a significant part of Manhattan.”
