Blackstone Group is fully ramping up its bet on artificial intelligence, with a $200 billion data center investment becoming a core strategic focus.

BlockBeats news, October 15 - It is reported that Blackstone Group (BX.N) has built a data center investment portfolio worth $200 billion and is collaborating with Google to build a cloud computing business. Blackstone has also invested in AI labs such as OpenAI, provided loans collateralized by Broadcom and Nvidia chips, and poured funds into power plants and data center cooling equipment. These moves indicate that the world's largest alternative asset management company is fully positioning itself across various channels in artificial intelligence.

Almost all private market investment institutions are investing in some area of the AI boom. But while others remain cautious about certain parts of the market, Blackstone has consistently been explicitly bullish on the opportunities brought by artificial intelligence. President Gray said that AI investment is the "most important thing" Blackstone is currently pursuing.
