Jason Calacanis on LinkedIn: Meta's Manhattan-Sized Data Center Push
Meta, formerly known as Facebook, is making significant strides in the AI industry with its massive data center project. Mark Zuckerberg recently unveiled plans for a 2-gigawatt data center that is so large, it covers 40% of Manhattan on a map.
Key Statistics:
- $65B CapEx in 2025
- 1.3M GPUs powering LLaMA 4
- Meta AI assistant for over 1 billion users this year
But Meta is not the only player in the game. Other companies like Reliance Group are also investing in large data centers, such as the 3-gigawatt facility in India. Additionally, partnerships like Anthropic and Amazon are ramping up their efforts, and Project Stargate is aiming for the stars with ambitious goals.
With such rapid growth in data center development, the question arises: are we building too much compute?
Meta's advancements in the AI field position it as a frontrunner in the industry. As Jason Calacanis shares his insights, it's clear that Meta is poised for success, while other competitors may struggle to keep up.
