The US government is showing interest in major AI players, while data center operators are prioritizing AI infrastructure due to its importance for model training. Amazon's investment in Anthropic highlights the growing focus on AI, with AWS also investing heavily in new data centers and GPU utilization. However, regulations may be introduced to monitor large-scale cloud usage for AI model training, and security incidents like Microsoft's accidental data exposure are becoming more common. Additionally, AWS has retired its EC2 classic instances after keeping them supported for over a decade, marking an exception rather than the rule in the company's approach to service retirement.
