Microsoft is gearing up to spend $80 billion in fiscal 2025 on AI-ready data centers. That’s enough cash to buy every person in the U.S. a PS5 and still have change for pizza. With over half the funds staying stateside, they’re solidifying America’s AI throne. Microsoft: crushing the game and your server capacity.
