xAI contracted for 24k H100s from Oracle and Grok 2 trained on those. Grok 2 is going through finetuning and bug fixes. Probably ready to release next month.
xAI is building the 100k H100 system itself for fastest time to completion. Aiming to begin training later this month. It will be the most powerful training cluster in the world by a large margin.
The reason we decided to do the 100k H100 and next major system internally was that our fundamental competitiveness depends on being faster than any other AI company. This is the only way to catch up.
Oracle is a great company and there is another company that shows promise also involved in that OpenAI GB200 cluster, but, when our fate depends on being the fastest by far, we must have our own hands on the steering wheel, rather than be a backseat driver.

only in the bizaro legal world is this a tough call. This case was an absolute disaster for the shareholders. The lawyers who brought it should be given nothing in light of the recent vote — as a matter of fact in a fair justice system they would be fined

Most of that money is just a consultant booking last minute business class tickets to fly to NYC for 6 months every week, staying in a 5 star hotel near Central Park and eating at Michelin star restaurants every evening and billing all that to the client.
Douglas A. Boneparth@dougboneparth· Jul 9, 2024If you're bad at spending money, just remember that NYC paid McKinsey $4 million for a study on whether trash bags should go in trash cans.

LLMs are on track to consume the very last bit of the internet’s human written knowledge by 2026. Will the Data-wall be overcome? Where do you expect more consumable data will come from? Synthetic? Humanoid Robots in the wild?
