IT Home reported on October 21 that Google CEO Sundar Pichai said today the company is shifting some computing capacity from its cloud business to frontier AI research and development to fully support advances in frontier AI.
For Google, developing frontier AI is costly and requires vast computing resources and chips, but those resources could otherwise be sold at high prices through its cloud business. Pichai said that investing resources in frontier AI research and development is “fundamental” to Google.
The CEO also said that customers seeking to secure computing capacity for 2027 now would face great difficulty, citing the two to three years it takes for a data center to go from decision to operation and a surge in demand for agentic tasks. He explained: “Our cloud business can forgo short-term revenue at any given moment because we are making trade-offs in computing to support the development of frontier AI.”
