Money right here from @awscloud when it comes to custom silicon. Not just first for Amazon, but first of any hyperscaler to have the XPU, CPU, and DPU all custom on the same board. I expect Google to do the same. Also, great showcase for @Arm both in CPU and DPU!

Arm just contributed its Foundation Chiplet System Architecture to OCP. I talked with Mohamed Awad, GM of Arm Infrastructure, about: • Power-limited AI datacenters • Arm IP → CSS → Total Design → FCSA • What's standardized and what's open chipstrat.com/p/an-interview…

The money isn’t the hard part. It’s speed. The market is moving so fast. Helping focus investment on what really matters has always been the mission of OCP and of @Arm #OCP

🗓️ Happening tomorrow at #OCPSummit25! Mohamed Awad shares how energy-efficient compute, chiplet-based design, and open collaboration are transforming AI and cloud infrastructure — and shaping the next era of the data center. 📍 Tuesday | 09:05am okt.to/HBPtCK

In the age of AI, power efficiency isn’t just a competitive advantage. It’s a baseline requirement. 🆕 That’s why close to 50% of the compute shipped to top hyperscalers in 2025 will be Arm-based. This is what reshaping the cloud landscape looks like: okt.to/sVuXFC

Here's to a great #GTC25! Did you catch these Arm-based announcements during NVIDIA CEO, Jensen Huang's keynote?   ➡️  Blackwell Ultra, using the GB300 NVL72, which connects 72 Blackwell Ultra GPUs and 36 Arm Neoverse-based Grace CPUs ➡️  Vera Rubin - as part of NVIDIA's future roadmap, packing 88 Arm-based cores ➡️ New desktop systems coming from leading vendors based on the new Arm-based DGX Spark personal AI supercomputer ➡️ GM's future self-driving fleet using Arm-based NVIDIA Drive AGX technology ➡️ A sneak peek of more robotics on Jetson!  As AI innovation continues at pace, the Arm compute platform is providing the foundation for the next generation of AI applications from the edge to the cloud, covering PC, autonomous vehicles, data centers and more. We're proud to partner with NVIDIA to make this a reality.

Announcing The Stargate Project The Stargate Project is a new company which intends to invest $500 billion over the next four years building new AI infrastructure for OpenAI in the United States. We will begin deploying $100 billion immediately. This infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world. This project will not only support the re-industrialization of the United States but also provide a strategic capability to protect the national security of America and its allies. The initial equity funders in Stargate are SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle, and MGX. SoftBank and OpenAI are the lead partners for Stargate, with SoftBank having financial responsibility and OpenAI having operational responsibility. Masayoshi Son will be the chairman. Arm, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle, and OpenAI are the key initial technology partners. The buildout is currently underway, starting in Texas, and we are evaluating potential sites across the country for more campuses as we finalize definitive agreements. As part of Stargate, Oracle, NVIDIA, and OpenAI will closely collaborate to build and operate this computing system. This builds on a deep collaboration between OpenAI and NVIDIA going back to 2016 and a newer partnership between OpenAI and Oracle. This also builds on the existing OpenAI partnership with Microsoft. OpenAI will continue to increase its consumption of Azure as OpenAI continues its work with Microsoft with this additional compute to train leading models and deliver great products and services. All of us look forward to continuing to build and develop AI—and in particular AGI—for the benefit of all of humanity. We believe that this new step is critical on the path, and will enable creative people to figure out how to use AI to elevate humanity.

"The flexibility of Axion is essential if we want to more quickly and broadly meet the infrastructure needs of our customers and partners — especially in the fast-moving age of AI." - Partha Ranganathan & Mark Lohmeyer @GoogleCloud - cloud.google.com/transform/axio…

🤝 We're taking our partnership with @GoogleCloud to the next level. Axion processors, built #onArm Neoverse V2, are the newest example of how we're working together to optimize for workload performance and efficiency. @AwadMo shares the details. 👇

By building #onArm Neoverse, @GoogleCloud's Axion processors are well-suited for the age of AI, benefitting from: ⚡ Higher performance  🔋 Lower power consumption ⬆️ Greater scalability   @AwadMo shares why. 👇   Full interview: okt.to/0LPnpo
