It does if Google can double their footprint. They announced reduced profitability recently in part due to capex for data centers.

Last year google started warning some internal teams that they had to limit usage. It’s possible they’re running out of compute.

Google has been internally chopping budgets since decades. Is how they keep utilization up. Look up “steamroller” or “ucp” if you don’t know those.
