Google expands AI capabilities with Gemini Enterprise amid rising demand.
Google has signed a $30 billion AI computing deal with SpaceX, owner of xAI, to secure access to 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs from October 2023 to June 2029. SpaceX will receive $920 million monthly for providing computing power, with a one-month grace period if the GPU target is missed by September 2023, after which payments will be reduced. A Google Cloud spokesperson described the agreement as a "short-term, timely" measure to meet surging demand for its Gemini Enterprise AI subscription service for large businesses. Despite having its own data centers, Google seeks additional capacity to support its AI offerings.
