Google to invest $40B in Texas data centers to expand AI infrastructure
Google has announced a $40 billion investment to build three new data centers in Texas, aiming to meet rising demand for AI computing power. The facilities will be located in Midlothian, Red Oak, and near Dallas, and are expected to generate thousands of jobs. This move aligns with Google’s strategy to position Texas as a central AI and cloud computing hub, with the company joining other major players like OpenAI and Anthropic in the region. The expansion also supports Google’s plans to offer enhanced AI services across its ecosystem.
This marks one of the largest infrastructure investments in AI computing in the U.S., highlighting intensifying competition in generative AI.
