Brookfield: Next decade will see 75GW of AI data centers built, total AI infrastructure spend to pass $7 trillion. Brookfield believes that $4tn will be spent on chips (including fabs and supply chains) and $2tn on AI data centers. $500bn will go to power & transmission, and another $500bn will go to broader tech such as dedicated fiber connectivity, cooling solutions, and robotics manufacturing. “AI is becoming commercial and functional in a greater number of use cases. More efficiency in AI is going to drive more demand for AI. We see very little chance of overbuilding at this point,” Connor Teskey president of Brookfield Asset Management, said. The company predicts that the installed base of GPUs will grow about sevenfold, from ~7 million in 2024 to 45 million by 2034. Those chips will increasingly be used for inference, with around 75 percent of future AI compute demand to come from inference by 2030. Much of this will occur in GPU-as-a-service companies, such as CoreWeave. “We project GPU-as-a-service to grow from about $30bn in 2025 to over $250bn by 2034 as companies, large and small, seek flexible, on-demand access to AI horsepower without the capex commitment.” Are you building your infrastructure team?
