去年 9 月，两家公司签署谅解备忘录，英伟达将为 OpenAI 建设至少 10GW 算力，并承诺最高投资 1000 亿美元协助支付成本，而 OpenAI 则同意租用英伟 达芯片。当时，黄仁勋与奥尔特曼及 OpenAI 总裁格雷格 · 布罗克曼联合亮相，黄仁勋称这是"史上最大的算力项目"。此后 OpenAI 又接连与多家芯片与云 厂商签署协议，带动全球科技股上涨。 IT之家注意到，黄仁勋在英伟达宣布 300 亿美元投资之前已经进行了铺垫。就在上个月，他表示英伟达会参与 OpenAI 当前的融资轮，这很可能是公司有史 以来最大的一次投资。黄仁勋当时拒绝具体说明投资金额，但表示"远不及"此前报道的 1000 亿美元。 IT之家 2 月 20 日消息，今日，英国《金融时报》援引知情人士消息，英伟达正接近与 OpenAI 达成一项约 300 亿美元（IT之家注：现汇率约合 2074.86 亿元 人民币）的股权投资协议，谈判已进入最后阶段，最早可能于本周末敲定。 据悉，这笔交易是 OpenAI 更大规模融资的一部分，然而，此举意味着两家公司将放弃去年 9 月高调宣布的 1000 亿美元（现汇率约合 6916.2 亿元人民 ...

AMD正在用金融"兜底"换取AI芯片出货的加速度，以追赶英伟达在数据中心AI芯片上的领先优势。 据The Information援引知情人士称，AMD将为数据中心与云服务初创公司Crusoe的一笔3亿美元贷款提 供实质性担保，贷款方为高盛，资金将用于购买AMD的AI芯片并安装在俄亥俄州一座数据中心。 知情人士称，这笔贷款将以芯片及相关设备作为抵押。作为担保安排的一部分，如果Crusoe找不到愿意 使用这些芯片的客户，例如AI开发者，AMD将同意从Crusoe租用这些芯片，从而为Crusoe提供"需求 兜底"。 其中，英伟达投资了CoreWeave，并同意购买CoreWeave无法向其他客户出售的算力容量。CoreWeave 在2023年建立了首个债务融资安排，规模23亿美元，以英伟达芯片及客户合同作支撑。 类似融资也在扩散。伦敦的Nscale本月表示已获得包括Pimco和Blue Owl Capital在内机构提供的14亿美 元贷款，其发言人称该贷款由公司合同与芯片作担保。 追赶压力：CEO设定份额目标，AMD加码非常规促销手段 这笔Crusoe融资安排凸显AMD正用更多非传统方式争夺AI芯片市场。The I ...

目前，从当下的AI发展趋势来看，最终的形态还未确定。但是算力、电力这些底层架构都已经成为明牌，未来的需求只会越来越大。 AI已成全球最大风口。 全球头部科技公司不断增加资本开支已表明，这场关于AI的竞争没有上限，直至分出胜负。 从当下全球各大投资机构的动向来看，之前押注OpenAI、英伟达、Meta的投资机构，也开始将筹码向谷歌押注，以求在未来的AI全面竞争中，不被挤下"牌 桌"。 未来已来，逐渐开始流行。 且随着AI算力的几何倍的提升，AI Agent进化速度也会越来越快，这是一场赢家通吃的游戏，以往互联网细分赛道的玩法也将全面失效。 值得注意的是，随着AI的迭代速度加快，AI的全面竞争已经拉开序幕，在这场史诗级的科技浪潮之下，全球主流机构与科技公司都已无法独善其身，其中 就包括以稳健投资为主的伯克希尔·哈撒韦。 "AI"，无法忽视 随着AI迭代速度加快，资本给予相关公司的估值也呈现出了爆发的趋势。 以最近上市的智谱以及MiniMax为例，这两家大模型公司，上市至今均获得了五倍以上的涨幅。对于尚未产生盈利且营收还处于较低水平的公司，在香港这 样成熟的市场能给出2000亿港元以上的估值，实属罕见。 当然，市场 ...
