Nov 25 (Reuters) - Facebook parent Meta is in

discussions with Alphabet's Google to spend billions

on using Google's AI chips in its data centers from 2027 and to

rent chips from Google Cloud by next year, The Information

reported on Monday.

Google has pitched tensor processing units, or TPUs, as a

cheaper alternative to Nvidia ( NVDA ) chips, useful for firms

seeking higher security standards, the report said, adding that

Google has discussed aiming for 10% of Nvidia's ( NVDA ) revenue with its

TPU chip business.

The TPUs, available for rent on Google Cloud, serve as an

alternative to supply-constrained Nvidia ( NVDA ) chips.

Meta, Google and Nvidia ( NVDA ) did not immediately respond to

requests for comment. Reuters could not immediately verify the

report.

Meta announced earlier this year it will invest $600 billion

in U.S. infrastructure and jobs over the next three years,

including AI data centers.

The company has been one of Nvidia's ( NVDA ) biggest customers since

2022, amassing an arsenal of graphics processing units to train

its models and also serve the more than 3 billion people who use

its apps each day.
