From OpenAI

Announcing The Stargate Project

The Stargate Project is a new company which intends to invest $500 billion over the next four years building new AI infrastructure for OpenAI in the United States. We will begin deploying $100 billion immediately. This infrastructure will secure American leadership in AI, create hundreds of thousands of American jobs, and generate massive economic benefit for the entire world. This project will not only support the re-industrialization of the United States but also provide a strategic capability to protect the national security of America and its allies.

The initial equity funders in Stargate are SoftBank, OpenAI, Oracle, and MGX. SoftBank and OpenAI are the lead partners for Stargate, with SoftBank having financial responsibility and OpenAI having operational responsibility. Masayoshi Son will be the chairman.

Arm, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Oracle, and OpenAI are the key initial technology partners. The buildout is currently underway, starting in Texas, and we are evaluating potential sites across the country for more campuses as we finalize definitive agreements.

As part of Stargate, Oracle, NVIDIA, and OpenAI will closely collaborate to build and operate this computing system. This builds on a deep collaboration between OpenAI and NVIDIA going back to 2016 and a newer partnership between OpenAI and Oracle.

This also builds on the existing OpenAI partnership with Microsoft. OpenAI will continue to increase its consumption of Azure as OpenAI continues its work with Microsoft with this additional compute to train leading models and deliver great products and services.

All of us look forward to continuing to build and develop AI—and in particular AGI—for the benefit of all of humanity. We believe that this new step is critical on the path, and will enable creative people to figure out how to use AI to elevate humanity.

This has to tie into the Tik Tok deal. Oracle plays a big part in Tik Tok.

Trump is so comfortable this time. Him asking them to explain things would have never happened last go around cause he seemed to need to control it all.

So this is a revere of direction from the alleged government controlled AI.

Find another post where I’ve been critical of Trump since re-election.

Until then…STFU. Everyone has the right to be skeptical. I don’t follow blindly.

AI to be used to gene sequence cancer detection within blood tests for each individual to create an mRNA vaccine unique to that person in essence curing cancer.

CNN and MSNBC passé on covering President’s presser.

They don’t want him to have any press on winning.

Cancer treatment specific to you and your cancer is where the real promise is in mRNA tech. Unfortunately, it will benefit greatly from the illegal mRNA vaccine programs delivered worldwide, but it will give us YUGE data.

Any give cliffs of infrastructure announcement? I’m still watching for DC prisoner release.



This is OpenAI's press release/tweet.

Someone more familiar with this technology will have to break down what this actually means in physical terms. Are we just building super servers to run this next gen AI or are we talking chip and hardware manufacturing too? It's a little vague to me, but I don't know a ton about this stuff.

As a physician and seeing the watering down of training and lesser and lesser qualified doctors being passed along to fill spots for corporate medicine, it gives me hope. Healthcare is going to shite.
