Tech giants are now competing to amass the largest number of Nvidia chips in their data centers, marking a new phase in the AI race. Companies are investing billions to create super clusters of servers, significantly increasing their computational power. This trend is driven by the need for advanced AI models and the growing demand for Nvidia's technology.
Elon Musk's xAI has built a supercomputer with 100,000 Nvidia chips, while Meta is also ramping up its AI capabilities with a massive chip conglomeration. The competition is not just about bragging rights; it reflects a strategic push to enhance AI model performance. However, the challenges of managing these large clusters and ensuring their efficiency raise questions about the sustainability of this approach.
• Companies are building super clusters to enhance AI model training capabilities.
