Demand for AI data centers has increased due to the rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence technology, Reuters reports. . This is because traditional data centers aren't as capable of handling the advanced tasks that AI requires. . Several supercomputers would be built across five phases. "Stargate" would be launched in the fifth phase, while a smaller supercomputer would be launched in the fourth phase, tentatively around 2026. Microsoft and OpenAI are reportedly in the third phase currently. We are always planning for the next generation of infrastructure innovations needed to continue pushing the frontier of AI capability, Microsoft spokesperson, to Reuters .
