<div id="readability-page-1" class="page"><div>Alphabet is reportedly trying to turn Google's custom AI chips into a bigger business by borrowing a page from Nvidia's playbook.According to the Wall Street Journal, Google is backing an AI data center project called Lake Mariner in western New York with a $3.2 billion financial guarantee. The facility's developers will lease computing power from thousands of Google TPUs to Anthropic, giving Google a clearer path to sell its own AI infrastructure beyond internal use.That is the bigger story. Google's TPUs were originally built to power its own products, but the company is now positioning them as a serious alternative to Nvidia GPUs for training and running AI models. The strategy could help Google create new revenue streams, keep more AI spending inside its own ecosystem and reduce reliance on outside chip suppliers.The move also shows where Big Tech is headed. Amazon is reportedly looking to sell its own AI chips to outside customers, while Microsoft and Meta are investing heavily in proprietary chips.</div></div>
