Investing.com -- Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN). is planning an ambitious expansion of its data centers worldwide, according to AWS Chief Executive Officer Matt Garman, who interviewed on Bloomberg TV. The company’s cloud services division, Amazon Web Services (AWS), which is the world’s leading provider of rented computing power and data storage, is also seeking to enhance access to the latest artificial intelligence (AI) chips from Nvidia Corp . (NASDAQ:NVDA)

Earlier this year, AWS launched a group of data centers in Mexico. Garman revealed that the company is also in the process of constructing new facilities in Chile, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, and Taiwan.

Amazon’s AI franchise is expected to generate multiple billions of dollars over a full year, according to the company. Garman clarified that this estimate represents the customer usage of AWS’s on-demand AI services.

Amazon, like its competitors Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:MSFT). and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Inc.’s Google, is striving to increase its capacity to handle AI tasks. Garman mentioned that Amazon is collaborating with Nvidia to boost its inventory of the chipmaker’s latest GB200 semiconductors, which are currently available for AWS customers to trial.

Garman also expressed interest in hosting OpenAI’s models on AWS. OpenAI, an AI startup, currently uses Microsoft servers. However, earlier this year, OpenAI received approval to consider other partnerships if Microsoft opts not to continue the business arrangement.
