Amazon to invest $20 billion in Pennsylvania for AI infrastructure, creating 1,250 jobs by Paul Hill The governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, has announced that Amazon has agreed to invest at least $20 billion in AI infrastructure in the state. Shapiro noted that this is the largest-ever private sector investment in the state’s history and is set to create at least 1,250 high-paying, high-tech jobs, plus thousands of construction jobs to build the AWS data centers. The initial locations for the first two data centers are Salem Township in Luzerne County and Falls Township in Bucks County. The governor said that more sites were also under consideration, so this $20 billion figure could grow further. Aside from the obvious benefits for the locals, it also helps to keep America in a strong position in its AI race with China. Why Pennsylvania? The Shapiro administration's role “Pennsylvania is competing again – and I’m proud to announce that with Amazon’s commitment of at least $20 billion to build new state-of-the-art data center campuses across our Commonwealth, we have secured the largest private sector investment in the history of Pennsylvania,” said Governor Josh Shapiro. “This initial investment from Amazon will create thousands of good-paying, stable jobs as Pennsylvania workers build, maintain, and operate the first two data center campuses in Luzerne County and Bucks County. Our team worked closely with local leaders and Amazon to land this deal, and we continue to be actively engaged on securing additional sites in Pennsylvania – helping them secure local support, developing the infrastructure needed to support more data centers, and ensuring our permitting processes move quickly and efficiently. With this historic announcement, we’re creating opportunity for our workers, generating new revenue for our local communities, and ensuring the future of AI runs right through Pennsylvania.” Based on what Shapiro said, the state has tried quite hard to get Amazon to build there instead of somewhere else. States really have to put in effort to convince big tech, as other areas are also clamoring for businesses to set up there too. Back in 2021, we reported that Samsung had agreed to build its Taylor, Texas factory after the state made a tax break offer with the Korean company. The impact on jobs, communities, and the AI landscape Initially, Amazon will need thousands of construction workers to build the data centers and when this is done, it will be hiring 1,250 operators, technicians, and engineers to help manage the facilities - these jobs promise to be high-paying jobs. These jobs are also expected to drive up tax revenues, which will be positive for the state, counties, and municipalities. David Zapolsky, Amazon’s chief global affairs and legal officer, also said that the investments would create workforce development programs and community initiatives for the benefit of residents. It’s unclear from the announcement what form these will take. -

Feels like Apple is kind of bringing Aero to their apple stuff, honestly. I get that same vibe. -

Yeah a lot of people do that, but there are also terrible people on secondhand market places that will claim things like the CPU isn't working, or there's a problem with the motherboard etc It's harder to confirm to a buyer that the item is fine when it is all sold separately. I was thinking of taking out the 4070 and riser kit and lowering to 1400. I think people who would buy this sort of system would pair a better GPU with it anyway (I had a 4080 SUPER in it).
