Alphabet Commits Billions to AI Infrastructure with Major India and U.S. Investments

Alphabet announced a $24 billion AI infrastructure investment, allocating approximately $15 billion to India over five years and roughly $9 billion to a U.S. expansion in South Carolina. The investments cover a new data‑centre campus in Visakhapatnam and subsea‑cable gateways, with plan to support AI workloads at scale globally. While this underscores Alphabet’s ambition to dominate the AI stack, it also signals heavy capital deployment amid rising scrutiny over returns and tech‑capex saturation.
