What's new? Nvidia and OpenAI announced a historic partnership that includes a plan for Nvidia to invest up to $100B in building 10 gigawatts of AI datacenters to power superintelligence.

What matters?

  • The deal involves deploying 10 gigawatts of Nvidia systems—enough to power roughly 7.5 million homes—which will supply millions of next-gen GPUs for OpenAI's infrastructure.

  • The project's first phase is set to go live in the second half of 2026, leveraging Nvidia’s Vera Rubin platform to power both training and inference for future models.

  • Both companies frame this as building the foundation for the "economy of the future," enabling a new class of compute-intensive products and services on OpenAI's platform.

Why it matters?

This partnership gives OpenAI the tremendous compute power required to pursue superintelligence and locks in a critical customer for Nvidia's future hardware. The sheer scale of the investment underscores how building cutting-edge AI is increasingly dependent on massive, capital-intensive infrastructure deals.

AI GUIDE

What's new? An AI filmmaker released 'Skyland', a stunning fantasy short film created by a single person, showing that AI video is ready for cinematic action.

What matters?

  • A solo creator made the entire film using a combination of tools, with the newly launched Luma Ray 3 enabling the high-quality motion.

  • The film's entire visual concept was developed from a single Midjourney image, which was then expanded into a full cinematic world using other AI tools.

  • The project's dynamic action sequences overcome the usual stiffness of AI video, and the creator even shared the prompt he used to generate the impressive fight scenes.

Why it matters?

This project demonstrates that AI-powered video tools have moved beyond simple tech demos and are now capable of producing legitimate cinematic content. It signals a major shift where individual creators can produce high-quality visual stories that previously required entire production crews.
