Some crazy facts from takingstock.ai:
- the 5 hyperscalers are spending $785-820bn this year
- google and Amazon are each spending more as a percentage of US GDP than was spent on the Apollo Program or Manhattan Project in their peak years
- Google is spending 200bn this year, enough to pay for a One World Trade Centre every week, fund the World Health Organisation’s annual budget each fortnight, or pay for a Ford-class aircraft carrier and stock it with F35s each month. It is enough to buy all of Ford, Nike and General Motors, with money to spare.
- The US will be short of power by the equivalent of six New York Cities by 2028 and around 18 New York Cities by 2029.
