Big Investments

Recently, the United States announced a $500 billion investment in the Stargate project — a partnership involving OpenAI, Microsoft, Oracle, and MGX. This initiative primarily focuses on expanding GPU-equipped datacentres that are going to empower the U.S. AI capacity. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has remarked that it is practically impossible to catch up with OpenAI given the enormous costs and infrastructure required to build competitive models.
