US EditionAmazon pledges up to $50 billion to expand AI, supercomputing for US government
AWS will build new data centers with 1.3 gigawatts of AI and supercomputing capacity to support federal agencies’ missions, aligning with the White House AI Action Plan.
- On Monday, AWS announced a plan to build and deploy purpose-built AI and high-performance computing for U.S. government customers, committing up to $50 billion.
- Aiming to accelerate discovery and decision-making, AWS says the initiative compresses tasks from weeks into hours and supports the White House's AI Action Plan targeting defense and intelligence workflows.
- Beginning in 2026, the buildout will add nearly 1.3 gigawatts across AWS Top Secret, AWS Secret and AWS GovCloud regions, providing over 11,000 government agencies access to Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Bedrock, Anthropic Claude, AWS Trainium and Nvidia infrastructure.
- Garman said `This investment removes the technology barriers that have held government back and further positions America to lead in the AI era`.
- The move follows other industry pushes, including the Stargate joint venture aiming up to $500 billion and AWS's at least $5 billion pledge in South Korea.
