Africa-Press – Eritrea. <\/strong><\/span>US tech giant Amazon announced on Tuesday its plans to invest $11 billion in the US state of Georgia to expand and improve the AI infrastructure of its cloud unit Amazon Web Services (AWS).<\/p>\n

An announcement said the cloud unit plans to invest $11 billion to expand its infrastructure in Georgia to support cloud computing and AI technologies and that the investment is expected to create at least 550 new highly skilled jobs.<\/p>\n

Productive AI boosts the demand for advanced cloud infrastructure and processing power, it said, stressing that AWS’ investments will support the future of AI in data centers in Georgia.<\/p>\n

AWS data centers are flexible enough to efficiently run graphics processing units for traditional workloads or AI and machine learning models, the statement said, adding that this state-of-the-art AI infrastructure will strengthen Georgia’s position as an innovation hub.<\/p>\n

Amazon’s investments in Georgia and the employment it created were highlighted, and the company has invested $18.5 billion in the state since 2010.<\/p>\n

Big tech companies are allocating their resources to improve their capabilities in AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Tech giant Microsoft announced last week that it plans to invest $80 billion in AI technologies in 2025.<\/p>\n
