OpenAI’s Project Stargate sparks reactions from Microsoft, Meta CEOs

“All I know is that I am good for $ 80 billion.”

One researcher rarely picks up a moment. Here, you have Microsoft CEO Satia Nadila He said that he is “not in detail” about Stargate, the infrastructure project of artificial intelligence, which is supposed to own a hundred billion of artificial intelligence led by its investment in the Openai.

Nadila does not read on Ali Mysterious details From Stargate a lot says about the amount of Microsoft and Openai. Microsoft was mentioned in Stargit press release Since Openai models are still exclusive to Azure. But the most interesting aspects of Stargate are not that money does not exist yet; It is that the biggest supporter in Openai decided not to participate in what Sam Taman The most important project in this era is called.

While I got fewer headlines this week, I found Nadila Respond to Elon Musk On x More lighting. In his response to Musk, saying: “On the other hand, Satia definitely has money,” Nadila replied: “😂 And all these money are not related to the collapse of artificial intelligence, but it is related to building useful things for the real world!”

This post can only be explained as drilling in Altman. Nadila You can finance Stargate for Openai. He did not. What does the rest of us know not?

The disclosure of Splashy Stargate in the White House achieved its goal, which was clearly made everyone talking about large numbers. The addresses created by Mark Zuckerberg To make sure everyone ends the week for him The data center will be even greater From Stargate.

On Friday Post on his Facebook pageZuckerberg said that dead Data Center 2GW planned in Louisiana “Very large to cover a large portion of Manhattan,” with a map of the city’s trained footage to send the point to the home.

From his publication (added my focus): “We will attend online ~ 1GW of the account in the year 25 and we will finish the year with more than 1.3 million graphics processing units. We are planning to invest between 60 to 65 billion dollars in Capex this year with the development of our artificial intelligence teams significantly , And Our capital To continue investing in the coming years. “

I have no doubt that trust, Massayoshi SonAnd Larry Ellson It will be able to raise the billions they need Reducing Openai’s accreditation On Microsoft for the account. (The US government does not give money to Stargate, which makes the optics of announcing it alongside Trump more exotic) Existential technology in the next era and will continue to spend like hell to ensure that Openai does not fully escape from it.

A few companies were good from 2024, such as Redit. Since its publication last March, the company’s shares have risen by 300 percent, giving the social network an assessment of $ 32 billion.

He was faced with where Reddit was before the announcement, when the supervisors were ready against its accelerating changes, and there was a violent reaction to the company that sells its data to Google and Openai.

With those differences that seem to be now in the rear vision mirror, Reddit focuses on developing its user base, staying profitable, and using artificial intelligence to help people search for its location more easily. I signed with the CEO Steve Hoffman In CES a few weeks ago to hear his priorities for the year 2025, how he leads Redait, and his ideas about the discussion of scaling artificial intelligence, moderate content, and more …

The following interview has been edited for length and clarity:

Do your public subscription well. How are the past nine months or so to you personally?

We have a saying in Reddit that good numbers hold good meetings. So we have some good meetings.

Preparing to go to the public was intense. She tells the story again and again, which I enjoy, but it is a lot of work. I think more than most new companies, we are already rhythm of the public company: close the quarter, review audit operations, take a meeting of the Board of Directors, profits, and all of that. So it was not a major change for us from the operating point of view.

It is a truly exciting time for new investors and employees. You will not stick to the complaint. What I continue to tell the company is that everyone should be proud of the work they did and do not take these moments as a Muslim. I just tell them, look, enjoy the scene. If you look at our history, there is a lot of ascension and landing. There is no doubt that there are challenges in our future.

With your market hat where it is now, are you thinking about making fluctuations that you don’t think can do a year ago?

There are two categories that we will do. One is the implementation of the basic strategy. We have to rent. We have to build. I think we are very reasonable in terms of the size of our investments. The only sentence strategy for us is the development of the product and the survival is profitable.

What can you do with the high share price? Perhaps you can look at the integration and purchases that you will not do in another way. I would like to say that this is not at the present time because the acquisitions we have made over the past two years were these deals from 25 to 50 million dollars. It is a sweet spot for us to get technology and difference. I would always say that we are always watching the market, but we do not follow anything big or crazy now because I love the basic strategy. I think we can do what we want to do within our current capabilities.

What is the main product of Reddit this year?

The first is the essence of Reddit, which is community talks. Everyone has a home on Reddit, but do you see this house in your first session? There is another complete dimension for our work, which is Reddit as a source of information. Reddit has all this amazing information. For users who have a question that needs an answer, can we give them this answer? We have just entered the Reddit Answers test. I find it really useful in searches on current events. A year from now, it’s a liquefy. It is one of the few products in which every itch is scratched, so it will be a great axis.

What is this discussion about whether the artificial intelligence industry has run out of data?

I think we have a different answer to this question literally every month. We want to have good relationships with others in this space. We are open to work.

At the same time, we want to increase the value we take out of our data. We did not test the conflict between the two at this stage. I love [data licensing] Our relationships – the main relationships are Google and Openai. At this stage, we do not need any specific partnership. I would like to say they are all nice but there is no existence for us.

One of the challenges is that the artificial intelligence companies do not know the product you are building. It is not a bad thing. They repeat themselves. Chatgpt himself, the central product in this conversation, was an experimental offer. After that, after a year, it is the most important part of the technology of institutions on the ground with questionable economies. This makes it very exciting. I don’t think any of these companies will be insulted to hear me.

I was one of the first social media executives that I saw to criticize Tiktok. How does the US ban affect Redait?

If you look at the Reddit graph over the past 19 years, you will not see the rise and fall of any specific platform. I think every type of content should work on Reddit. The video on Reddit is largely the camera-what I am looking for-instead of the camera, or who I am? This is social media. I think the ban is the right thing to do The reasons I mentioned This frankly has nothing to do with competition.

With moderate changes in Meta, the broader conversation about social media feels as if it is now changing.

Over the past ten years, people have been talking about whether the speech was the problem, a crazy idea. You cannot get freedom without expression. I think overlap by interrogating and supplying the basic values ​​of America, we hope that the era will approach.

Are people playing politics? Of course, people are always. Regarding the subject of moderation, we always try to do things in the right way, which, not by chance, is in line with American values. It is a democratic platform. We believe a lot in people’s strength, crowd wisdom and voting. This is Reddit. So I am happy to see a return to where we were most of my life, which is an appreciation of freedom of expression.
