How Corning Invented A New Fiber-Optic Cable For AI And Landed A $6 Billion Meta Deal

Meta is giving Corning up to $6 billion for fiber-optic cable in its AI data centers, in a deal reported first by CNBC. Famous for making iPhone glass for Apple, the 175-year-old U.S. company is now at the heart of the AI infrastructure boom, with demand for fiber sending its stock up more than 70% in the last year. CNBC went to North Carolina for an exclusive interview with Corning CEO Wendell Weeks about a new type of fiber he helped invent for AI, plus a look at an expansion that Corning says will make its Hickory cable factory the largest in the world, all to meet demand from Meta and other data center giants like Nvidia, OpenAI, Google and Microsoft.
