ByteDance raises 2026 capex by at least 25% amid AI boom, rising memory costs, sources say

ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, is significantly increasing its investment in AI infrastructure, with planned capital expenditures exceeding 200 billion yuan (approximately $30 billion). This marks at least a 25% increase from the preliminary plan discussed last year, which proposed AI capex of 160 billion yuan. The increase is driven by the company's growing commitment to AI technologies. This move is crucial amid rising competition in the AI market, as ByteDance aims to enhance its technological capabilities and expand its service offerings in this sector.
