Meta outlined its infrastructure strategy dedicated to artificial intelligence in an interview with Santosh Janardhan, its head of infrastructure, shared by Meta Newsroom on Thursday.
According to Santosh Janardhan, Meta is not just a software company: its data centers play a fundamental role in building and powering its AI systems. He explained that AI differs from other technologies due to its specific needs for computing power and energy.
The executive addressed several key points: how Meta powers its AI infrastructure, the concept of gigawatts of energy consumed, the criteria for selecting chips used in its data centers, as well as the advantages of owning its own data centers. This approach aims to optimize performance and cost control in the development of artificial intelligence.
