In breaking news, Microsoft and OpenAI have unveiled plans for a groundbreaking super artificial intelligence computer that could come with a hefty price tag of $100 billion.
The tech giants are collaborating on a data center project known as Stargate, aimed at revolutionizing the field of artificial intelligence. This ambitious project involves constructing a supercomputer fueled by millions of specialized server chips.
Sources familiar with the discussions have indicated that the project’s cost could soar up to $100 billion. This figure is based on insights from individuals who have engaged with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and those who have reviewed initial cost estimates from Microsoft.
With Microsoft taking the lead in financing the project, it is expected to surpass the expenses of today’s largest data centers by 100-fold. The proposed supercomputer, Stargate, is anticipated to be the flagship among a series of cutting-edge facilities slated for development over the next six years.
Following this significant announcement, Worldcoin (WLD) – a project spearheaded by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman – experienced a sudden surge, witnessing a notable 5% spike within seconds. However, concerns surrounding privacy have been raised against WLD. In response to these apprehensions, Worldcoin has taken steps to address privacy issues by open-sourcing orbs designed to scan individuals’ eye irises.
