Only 8,000 GPUs to start and potentially 31,000 over time.
This is very small compared to Stargate Norway (announced almost 2 months ago), which starts out with 100,000 GPUs and planned (!) to have 250,000.
- fancyfredbot 1y agoNorway has advantage of lots of power and lots of investment from Aker who are presumably involved in supplying said power.
- steinvakt2 1y agoYes. But interesting that Stargate Norway is so much more significant. Not that it should be directly connected, but UK has more than 10x the population of Norway. So given a very simplified glance at the situation, Norway seems to have a strong position for the coming years in AI.
- fancyfredbot 1y agoIt's maybe simpler than I thought at first. The Norwegian deployment will be cheap to run and so easy to sell. It's clearly intended for people outside of Norway to use. So it's big. The UK deployment will be expensive to run and only people who are limited to UK for regulatory reasons will want it. There are few such customers so it's small.
