NEW ALBANY, Ohio—Google announced plans Monday to spend $1.7 billion to expand its three Ohio data center sites to boost the tech giant's artificial intelligence efforts and tools like Google search, Maps, and Gmail. The sites, which include a completed center in the Columbus suburb of New Albany and data centers being built in south Columbus and Lancaster, are the latest in a recent series of data-center investments in Central Ohio. A Google press release announcing the tech giant's plans didn't break down how many full-time jobs will be created as a result.
