Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup, xAI, plans to build a supercomputer dubbed the 'Gigafactory of Compute.' The supercomputer will utilize 100,000 specialized GPUs, specifically Nvidia's H100 graphics processing units, making it four times larger than the biggest AI clusters today. The project aims to power the next versions of xAI's AI, Grok, and is expected to be operational by fall 2025. The development will require billions in investment and significant power resources. xAI may partner with Oracle to develop this massive computing infrastructure.
