Meta plans to significantly increase its investment in AI infrastructure, including data centers and servers, with capital expenditures expected to reach $66-72 billion in 2025, a $30 billion year-over-year increase. This aggressive investment will continue into 2026 as Meta pursues opportunities to expand its AI capabilities.
The company is developing leading AI infrastructure to build the best AI models and product experiences, with potential collaborations with financial partners to co-develop data centers. Meta has announced major AI "titan clusters" like Prometheus in Ohio and Hyperion in Louisiana, along with other unnamed projects.
Meta also anticipates increased employee compensation to attract AI engineers and researchers for its Superintelligence Labs unit, focusing on "personal superintelligence." The company's stock surged 10% after reporting strong revenue growth driven by AI-powered advertising tools, despite a $4.5 billion loss in its Reality Labs segment.
