OpenAI Secures $12 Billion GPU Cloud Deal with CoreWeave
OpenAI has signed a five-year, $11.9 billion agreement with GPU cloud provider CoreWeave, including receiving $350 million worth of equity in the company. The deal reduces OpenAI's dependence on Microsoft's cloud services while securing critical compute resources for AI model development, representing another step in the increasingly competitive relationship between OpenAI and Microsoft.
Skynet Chance (+0.04%): This massive infrastructure investment demonstrates the extraordinary resources being channeled into advanced AI development, creating an environment where increasingly powerful and potentially unaligned systems can be developed without adequate safety constraints due to competitive pressures between major AI companies.
Skynet Date (-2 days): The securing of massive GPU resources directly addresses OpenAI's compute constraints ("out of GPUs") and significantly accelerates their capability to train more powerful models, potentially shortening the timeline to development of increasingly autonomous and potentially unaligned systems.
AGI Progress (+0.05%): This enormous investment in compute infrastructure directly addresses one of the main bottlenecks to training more powerful AI models, providing OpenAI with substantially expanded capacity to develop increasingly sophisticated systems that approach general intelligence capabilities.
AGI Date (-2 days): The $12 billion investment in GPU compute dramatically increases OpenAI's training capabilities and directly addresses Sam Altman's complaint about being "out of GPUs," removing a key constraint and potentially significantly accelerating the timeline for developing more powerful, AGI-like systems.
