Openai plans to add Alphabet’s Google Cloud service to meet their increasing computer capacity needs, they told Reuters three sources, marking a surprising collaboration between two prominent competitors in the artificial intelligence sector.
The agreement, which has been in discussion for a few months, was completed in May, one of the added sources. It emphasizes how the massive computer requirements of forming and deploying AI models are remodeling the competitive dynamics in IA, and marks the last play of Openai to diversify their sources of calculation beyond its great Microsoft defender, including its High Profile Data Center project.
It is a victory for the Google Cloud Unit, which will provide an additional computer capacity to open the existing infrastructure for training and execute their AI models, said sources, which requested anonymity to discuss private issues.
The movement also occurs when the Openai Chatgpt is the largest threat to the Google’s dominant search business for years, and Google executives recently said that the AI race may not be winner.
Openai, Google and Microsoft refused to comment. Alphabet’s shares increased by 2.1% on Tuesday afternoon after the news, while Microsoft shares dropped by 0.6%.
Scotiabank analysts on Tuesday called a little surprising development, “emphasizing the Growth Opportunities of the Google Cloud Unit, while expressing precaution on Chatgpt’s competition.
“The agreement … emphasizes the fact that the two are ready to overlook the strong competition between them to meet the massive computer demands. Ultimately, we see it as a great victory for Google Cloud Unit, but …
Since Chatgpt burst on the scene in late 2022, Openai has dealt with the increasing demand for computer capacity, known in the industry as a calculation, for forming great language models, as well as for inference, which is to process information so that people can use these models.
Openai said on Monday that his annualized execution rate increased to $ 10 billion from June, positioning the company to achieve its entire year in the midst of the Bird adoption of the IA birds.
Earlier this year, Openai was associated with Softbank and Oracle in the Stargate Infrastructure Program of $ 500 million and signed offers worth billions with Coreweave for more calculation.
This year he goes to the track ending the design of his first internal chip, which could reduce his dependence on external hardware suppliers, reported Reuters in February.
Collaboration with Google is the last of several maneuvers made by Openai to reduce its dependence on Microsoft, whose Azure Cloud service had served as a Chatgpt Maker data centers infrastructure provider until January.
Google and Openai discussed an agreement for months, but they had previously signed an agreement due to the Openai block with Microsoft, told Reuters a source.
Microsoft and Openai are also in negotiations to review the terms of their billionaire investment, including Microsoft’s future participation in Openai.
For Google, the agreement occurs when the technology giant is expanding the external availability of its internal chip known as tensor processing units or TPU, which are historically reserved for internal use.
This helped Google to win customers, including the Great Apple Technology Player, as well as startups like Anthropic and Safe Superintelligence, two competitors from the Openai launched by Openai’s former leaders.
The addition of Openai Google to its customer list shows how the technology giant has taken advantage of its internal technology from hardware to software to accelerate the growth of its cloud business.
Google Cloud, which its $ 43 million in Sales included 12% of Alphabet’s 2024 revenue, has positioned itself as a neutral referee of computer resources to try to overcome Amazon and Microsoft as a cloud supplier choosing for a growing legion of the AI startups, the strong infrastructures that require the requirements of generating expensive invoices.
Alphabet is facing market pressure to demonstrate financial returns on AI -related capital costs, which are expected to reach $ 75 million this year, maintaining their fundamental line against the threat of competitors’ AI offers, as well as antimonopoly application.
Google AI Deepmind unit also directly competes with Openai and Anthropic in a race to develop the best models and integrate these advances into consumer applications.
The sale of computer power reduces the Google chip supply while strengthening the rivals restricted to the capacity. The Openai agreement will further complicate the CEO of Alphabet, Sundar Pichai, allocated the capacity between the competitive interests of the Google company and the consumer business segments.
Google was already lacking enough capacity to meet the demands of its cloud clients from the last quarter, the financial manager, Ashkenazi, told the analysts in April.
Although Chatgpt maintains a great advantage over Google’s competitor in terms of monthly users and analysts who have planned to reduce the Google Dominant Search Finding share, Pichai has neglected the worries that Openai usurpàs Google’s business domain.
