AMD, OpenAI Forge $10B+ Deal to Power Next-Gen AI Infrastructure
📅 - AMD and OpenAI have entered into a landmark multi-year, multi-generational partnership to deliver up to 6 gigawatts of AI computing power built on AMD's high-performance GPU technology. The agreement cements AMD as a key strategic compute provider for OpenAI, fueling the next wave of generative AI infrastructure and deepening the companies' collaboration on advanced hardware and software development.
Under the terms of the deal, OpenAI will deploy AMD Instinct GPUs across several generations, beginning with a 1-gigawatt rollout of the upcoming AMD Instinct MI450 GPUs in the second half of 2026. Future expansions will continue as OpenAI scales its data center capacity to meet growing [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Infleqtion Targets 1,000 Logical Qubits with New Neutral-Atom Design - Infleqtion, a global leader in neutral atom–based quantum technology, has unveiled details of its next-generation quantum computing architecture, a design it says will dramatically accelerate progress toward fault-tolerant quantum systems. The company projects that by 2030 it will deliver a full-stack quantum computer capable of operating more than 1,000 logical qubits - a milestone that, if achieved, would mark a critical step toward practical quantum advantage.
Infleqtion CEO Matt Kinsella described the announcement as both a technological and strategic inflection point for the firm. "We're accelerating innovation and execution toward fault-tolerant quantum computing with our new [...]

📅 - Jeff Bezos Envisions Gigawatt-Scale Space Data Centers Within 20 Years - Amazon founder Jeff Bezos believes that within the next two decades, gigawatt-scale data centers will be built in space - and that they will eventually outperform those on Earth, Reuters reported. Speaking at Italian Tech Week in Turin, Bezos said that space-based facilities could take advantage of continuous solar energy, offering a sustainable and cost-efficient alternative to the increasingly power-hungry data centers driving the global AI boom.
"In space, there are no clouds, no rain, no weather," said Jeff Bezos during a public discussion with John Elkann, chairman of Ferrari and Stellantis. "Because we have solar power there all the time, it will be preferable to build these [...]
📅 - Accelsius Gains Multi-Million Investment for Data Center Liquid Cooling - Accelsius, a specialist in advanced liquid cooling for data centers, has secured a multi-million-dollar strategic investment from Johnson Controls, a global leader in smart and sustainable building technologies. The funding marks a significant push to accelerate the adoption of next-generation cooling systems designed to handle the soaring power demands of AI and high-performance computing (HPC) environments.
Accelsius' core innovation lies in its two-phase, direct-to-chip (D2C) liquid cooling technology. Unlike conventional air-based or single-phase liquid systems, two-phase cooling harnesses the physical process of phase change - from liquid to vapor - to dissipate heat directly at the [...]
📅 - Ardian Acquires Ireland’s Energia in €2.5B Bet on AI Power Demand - In a major move underscoring the convergence of energy infrastructure and artificial intelligence, French private equity firm Ardian has agreed to acquire Irish utility Energia Group from U.S.-based I Squared Capital in a deal valued at more than €2.5 billion.
