Is AI development sustainable? Barry Lam, chairman of Quanta, pointed out that AI development consists of seven stages, and we are currently only at the second stage. The GB200 and GB300 models that Quanta produced for 2025 are designed to meet the demands of this second stage. He added that AI server computing power will increase tenfold over the next two years, and Quanta is already prepared for this growth. Lam expressed his excitement as an engineer about the many applications of AI.

In recent years, Singapore has ceased allowing new data center constructions due to limited land and essential resources such as water and electricity. As a result, many data center developments have rapidly shifted to Malaysia’s Johor state, which borders Singapore. This shift has propelled data centers to become a key industry within the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ), attracting an increasing number of supply chain companies.
