OpenAI and its partners are planning to borrow hundreds of billions of dollars to fund a data center buildout.

Google spent $185 billion on AI infrastructure in 2025.

An intense international AI race is occurring, involving multiple data centers controlled by different companies and countries such as the US and China.
