PANews reported on December 5 that according to DigiTimes, Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI has successfully reached a priority order agreement with NVIDIA to order GB200 AI servers worth US$1.08 billion. These servers are manufactured by Foxconn and are expected to start delivery in January 2025. Musk negotiated this priority order directly with NVIDIA CEO Huang Renxun to support the rapid development of xAI. xAI has recently been valued at US$50 billion and plans to launch a standalone application to promote its large language model Grok. Currently, Grok is available on the X platform, and the standalone application will further expand the user coverage.

Elon Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI plans to expand its Colossus supercomputer in Memphis, Tennessee, to at least 1 million GPUs (graphics processing units), 10 times the current size, according to Reuters. The system currently has 100,000 GPUs to support the training of xAI's chatbot Grok. The expansion is supported by Nvidia, Dell and Super Micro.
