Every nation racing to build AI infrastructure as Kazakhstan and Armenia join buildout

What was said

"What we're talking about now are data centers that are in the next several years going to use more power than the previous 50 years on Earth took. Individual buildings the size of football fields that have more power coming into them than midsize cities. They're being built across the US, Canada, throughout the Nordics, throughout France, in Europe, in the Middle East in nations that weren't front and center in anybody's mind previously. Kazakhstan, Tajikistan are building out, Georgia building out data centers of size."

The global AI infrastructure race has expanded beyond traditional tech hubs to include unexpected nations like Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, Armenia, and Georgia, all building massive data centers. These facilities will consume more power in the next several years than the previous 50 years of global data center construction, with individual buildings drawing electricity comparable to midsize cities, according to Cerebras CEO Andrew Feldman.
