Google just signed a massive deal to pay SpaceX nearly $1 billion a month for AI computing power, underscoring that the arms race for data centers is far from over.

## Idea

Even though tech stocks recently crashed, the actual revenue flowing into AI infrastructure is accelerating. Google committing over $10 billion annually to SpaceX for compute capacity proves that big tech has no intention of slowing down its AI investments. This massive capital expenditure will directly benefit the companies that build and supply the physical data centers, networking gear, and cooling systems required to run these supercomputers.
