A series of technology giants pour money into AI

According to TechSpot , the battle for dominance in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) between technology 'giants' is becoming increasingly fierce. Despite doubts about the real effectiveness of 'burning money' on AI, large companies such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Meta are still increasing their investment, with total spending expected to exceed 320 billion USD this year.

Big Tech invests heavily in artificial intelligence

The rise of DeepSeek, a Chinese startup that claims to have developed AI models comparable to those of Google and OpenAI at a significantly lower cost, has raised questions about whether the tech giants’ massive investments are really necessary. But that doesn’t seem to have deterred them.

Accordingly, Amazon leads the race with a record investment of 100 billion USD in infrastructure, mainly focusing on Amazon Web Services. Meanwhile, Google (Alphabet) is not far behind with 75 billion USD, Microsoft spends 80 billion USD on the Azure platform and Meta commits 'hundreds of billions' of USD to AI.

Each company has its own strategy in this AI race, with Amazon focusing on cloud computing, Google developing large language models, Microsoft integrating AI into its products, and Meta improving ad targeting and user experience.

While tech giants are bullish on the potential of AI, there are still doubts about the real return on these massive investments. Is there an ‘AI winter’ ahead?

However, experts say that technology companies cannot afford to falter in this race. If they want to maintain their leading position, they must continue to invest heavily in AI, despite the risks that lie ahead.
