NVIDIA and OpenAI have announced a major partnership to build some of the most powerful artificial intelligence infrastructure ever seen. This means they will create huge data centers full of NVIDIA computer chips to help OpenAI run and improve its AI systems.
With this new project, OpenAI will use at least ten gigawatts of NVIDIA technology. This will allow them to train and use the next generation of AI models. NVIDIA is also planning to invest up to one hundred billion dollars as each new data center is finished. Top leaders from both companies believe this project will help bring advanced AI out of labs and into everyday life.
OpenAI has quickly reached hundreds of millions of people with its tools like ChatGPT. To keep up with growth, they need much more powerful computer resources. These new data centers will allow AI to do more complex reasoning, handle different types of data at once, and serve even more users around the world.
Sam Altman, OpenAI's CEO, explained that having more AI computing power lowers costs and opens up new possibilities, like researching cures for diseases or creating free education for everyone. Without enough resources, companies would have to limit what they can offer, but this partnership aims to make unlimited AI capacity possible.
This collaboration actually began years ago, when NVIDIA first delivered a high tech server to OpenAI. Now, the scale is billions of times larger, and the teams believe the impact will be massive. Some of the new data centers are expected to start working in the second half of 2026. The leaders say this is just the beginning, with plans to connect AI to more applications and devices everywhere in the future.
