SoftBank will invest $2 billion in Intel, taking roughly a 2% stake at $23 per share and becoming one of Intels largest shareholders. It is a financial vote of confidence in a company trying to reestablish process leadership, scale a foundry business, and convince marquee customers to commit to external wafer orders. SoftBank has been assembling an AI supply-chain franchise that spans IP, compute, and infrastructure. It owns Arm, agreed to acquire Arm server CPU designer Ampere Computing, injected massive capital into OpenAI, and aligned with Oracle under the Stargate hyperscale AI initiative backed by the current U.S. administration.
OpenAI has confirmed its role in a $30 billion-per-year cloud infrastructure deal with Oracle, marking one of the largest cloud contracts in tech history. Part of the ambitious Stargate project, the deal aims to support OpenAI’s growing demand for compute resources, with 4.5GW of capacity dedicated to training and deploying advanced AI models. The partnership positions Oracle as a major player in the AI cloud arms race while signaling OpenAI’s shift toward vertically integrated infrastructure solutions.
OpenAI’s Stargate project—a $500B plan to build global AI infrastructure—is facing delays in the U.S. due to rising tariffs and economic uncertainty. While the first phase in Texas slows, OpenAI is shifting focus internationally with “OpenAI for Countries,” a new initiative to co-build sovereign AI data centers worldwide. Backed by Oracle and SoftBank, Stargate is designed to support massive AI workloads and reshape global compute power distribution.
As AI workloads explode in complexity and scale, telecom providers face a $1B+ opportunity to evolve from traditional carriers into AI connectivity enablers. This article explores how telcos can monetize AI-driven traffic through dynamic network infrastructure, edge AI hosting, and cloud-like billing models tailored to modern enterprise demands.
Nvidia's Open Power AI Consortium is pioneering the integration of AI in energy management, collaborating with industry giants to enhance grid efficiency and sustainability. This initiative not only caters to the rising demands of data centers but also promotes the use of renewable energy, illustrating a significant shift towards environmentally sustainable practices. Discover how this synergy between technology and energy sectors is setting new benchmarks in innovative and sustainable energy solutions.
Oracle introduces HeatWave GenAI, featuring the industry's first in-database large language models and an automated vector store. This innovation enables enterprises to develop AI applications without data migration, AI expertise, or additional costs, outperforming competitors like Snowflake and Google BigQuery.
