🚀 Big Tech & Startup
Elon Musk’s AI startup, xAI, has announced plans to build the world’s most powerful AI supercomputer. They’re aiming to use 100,000 Nvidia GPU’s to achieve this, which will make it approximately four times more powerful than current supercomputers. With xAI coming off the back of a $6 billion funding round, they’re in a great position to launch their ambitious project and ultimately achieve their aim of rivalling OpenAI and Google in the AI world.
🔭 Science & Futuristic Tech
The Euclid space telescope has discovered seven more ‘rogue’ planets, with suggestions they may outnumber stars by up to twenty times, with potentially trillions floating around in our galaxy alone. A ‘rogue’ planet is defined as not being tethered to a star, and so there’s no day/night cycle and they languish in perpetual darkness. There are theories that these planets could still support life, although this would likely be limited to bacteria and microbial life due to the lack of sunlight. NASA currently have plans to launch a new telescope in 2027 that should shed more light on these ‘rogue’ planets.
