The $1 Billion And Higher Ante To Play The Ai Game

Inflection AI, a startup founded in March 2022, has raised $1 billion in its second round of funding to build a massive system based on Nvidia “Hopper” H100 GPUs and Quantum 2 InfiniBand networking. This system will be one of the most powerful AI systems on Earth, and it is setting the bar for how far an AI startup has to scale in terms of money, machines, and software stacks to compete in the Dot Cog Boom.
