SpaceX has announced plans to build two supercomputing facilities aimed at bolstering its fast-growing artificial intelligence business. In a statement posted on its website Thursday, the company said it intends to develop a new $50 billion project in Arizona and confirmed a $24 billion investment in a computing facility near its Starbase headquarters in Texas. Together, the two projects represent a total value of $74 billion and also include the construction, ownership, and operation of a gas-fired power plant at the Texas site. According to SpaceX, construction of the Texas data center has already generated more than 3,000 construction jobs and is expected to create 500 permanent positions once operations begin. The Cochise County, Arizona, project is projected to generate approximately 5,500 construction jobs and 1,000 permanent roles.
