Elon Musk's AI initiative is integrating Nvidia Vera CPUs into its computing infrastructure to manage operations for the Grok assistant. The hardware will also power Starmind, an AI focused satellite designed to process calculations in Earth orbit.

Ramp has publicly made available the internal software system it uses to route artificial intelligence requests. The infrastructure tool distributes tasks across multiple underlying models to manage costs and performance.

Nvidia is guaranteeing approximately $105 billion in debt to help OpenAI secure a 20-year lease on a major new computing facility in Ohio. The site will be built by SoftBank's energy arm, with total project costs expected to reach up to $500 billion including hardware.

OpenAI launched a preview tier called Ultrafast, designed to process GPT-5.6 Sol up to 14 times faster than standard configurations. The setup uses specialized Cerebras chips to produce up to 750 tokens per second for real-time applications. The initial rollout is limited to select enterprise API testers before expanding to broader availability.

Anthropic signed a 20-year lease worth up to $9.1 billion for 191 megawatts of compute capacity at a Texas campus operated by Bitcoin mining firm Riot Platforms. The agreement highlights how AI labs are increasingly partnering with crypto miners to gain immediate access to high-capacity power connections and pre-developed real estate. The capacity will be brought online in phases through mid-2028.
