Dylan Patel says AI compute centralizes as $11T capex planned for 2024-2029
↗
In a podcast Q&A, SemiAnalysis founder Dylan Patel argues that AI compute is centralizing, with $11T in capex planned from 2024 to 2029, and discusses China's compute.
For engineers building AI infrastructure, this suggests that compute resources will be concentrated in a few large players, potentially affecting access and pricing. The scale of capex indicates a massive buildout that could reshape the industry. Understanding the centralization trend is critical for planning long-term AI strategies.
