Nvidia and Mira Murati's Thinking Machines Lab have formed a multiyear partnership in which the startup will deploy at least one gigawatt of cutting-edge chips to train and serve its frontier models. The companies will collaborate to design and serving systems that use Nvidia technology. The deal gives the relatively young AI lab computing power to advance its research, as well as funding to pay its staff. It currently has 120 employees and is competing fiercely for AI researcher talent as valuations in the industry have skyrocketed.
