Many tech companies' fortunes are directly tied to AI technology, and billions of dollars have been invested in building the AI infrastructure. However, a top Google executive has denied that artificial intelligence is in a bubble, despite growing voices in Silicon Valley and Wall Street suggesting that a bubble may be forming and could eventually burst."It cannot just be a bubble when you consider the magnitude of the money coming in from the entire ecosystem. The construction of AI infrastructure is a significant financial commitment.
The process is self-fulfilling. At an event in Delhi on Tuesday, Karan Bajwa, President of Google Cloud, Asia Pacific, told IndianExpress.com, "We are developing capabilities, building infrastructure, bringing them to market, and customers are using them."Following the announcement of a $15 billion investment by the Mountain View, California-based corporation to construct data center capacity for a new AI hub in Andhra Pradesh, the CEO made these remarks. Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, and Ministers Ashwini Vaishnaw of Electronics & Information Technology, Railways, and Information & Broadcasting attended the high-profile event in Delhi.The Visakhapatnam data center will become Google's largest AI hub outside of the US after the investment is implemented over the course of the following five years.
