Meta Platforms intends to raise up to $95 billion via capital offerings to fund expansion of its artificial‑intelligence compute infrastructure.
Meta Platforms announced that it will seek up to $95 billion through a series of capital offerings, with the primary goal of scaling its artificial‑intelligence compute capabilities.
The fund will support the construction of new data centres, procurement of advanced AI chips and further research into large‑scale models such as Llama, as the company integrates generative AI across its social‑media and metaverse products.
Market analysts point out that the size of the raise could dilute existing shareholders, but they also view it as a clear signal of Meta’s confidence that AI will become a major growth driver for the firm.
