Zuckerberg said online that Facebook's parent company is building several multi-gigawatt clusters, basically huge data centers that consume a gigawatt or more of power.
A gigawatt is enough electricity for roughly three-quarters of a million homes.
The first of these massive data centers is being called Prometheus, after the figure in Greek mythology who defied the gods and gave fire to humanity.
Zuckerberg says it's coming online next year.
Another one is named after the Greek titan Hyperion, associated with the rising sun.
That one slated to be able to scale up to five gigawatts.
Meta and others have been pouring money into a cutthroat competition to attract the personnel and build out the computing power to lead the AI race.
