SINGAPORE: Google’s AI investments are primarily in technical infrastructure, Google APAC head of AI and emerging tech policy Eunice Huang said today.
“As our CEO has said, in these early days of a very transformative technology, the risks of underinvesting are dramatically higher than the risks of overinvesting,” Huang said, during a panel discussion at the Reuters NEXT Asia summit in Singapore.
In April, Alphabet, Google’s parent company, said it was still committed to spending some US$75 billion this year to build out data centre capacity, despite turmoil over US tariffs and sought to reassure investors that its AI plans were yielding good returns.
