Nvidia CEO Advocates for Nuclear Power to Fuel AI Data Centers

Big Tech is increasingly turning to nuclear energy to meet the soaring power demands of their data centers. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently highlighted nuclear power as a potential energy source to support the company’s growing AI-driven operations. This comes on the heels of Microsoft's move to reactivate the Three Mile Island nuclear facility to power its data centers, marking a shift toward cleaner, more sustainable energy alternatives for tech giants like Nvidia, Amazon, and Google.

In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Huang expressed interest in diversifying Nvidia's energy sources, emphasizing the importance of balancing availability, cost, and sustainability. As data center electricity consumption is projected to nearly double by 2026, cleaner options like nuclear are becoming increasingly critical to support AI’s growing power demands. Huang also addressed Nvidia’s strategy for complying with U.S. export restrictions to China, reaffirming the company's focus on long-term efficiency through its next-gen AI chips, which require significant energy but offer greater performance.

Nvidia’s interest in nuclear energy underscores the urgent need for sustainable power solutions as data center energy consumption continues to rise. As Big Tech expands AI infrastructure, the shift to nuclear power could help balance environmental concerns while ensuring the capacity to support advanced technologies in the long run.

  3. Accessibility: The Molmo-1B variant is designed to be tiny, fast, and compatible with most devices, including smartphones.

In terms of performance, the flagship Molmo model with 72 billion parameters has outperformed leading models like GPT-4o, Gemini 1.5 Pro, and Claude 3.5 across 11 benchmarks. It excels particularly in understanding images, charts, and documents.

AMAZON & ANTHROPIC

🤖UK Clears Amazon's $4 Billion Investment in AI Startup Anthropic

Britain’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has given the green light to Amazon’s $4 billion investment in AI firm Anthropic, ruling that the deal does not breach the Enterprise Act of 2002. The CMA had reviewed whether the partnership would grant Amazon "material influence" over Anthropic, but determined that the criteria for such a merger had not been met, thus avoiding concerns over competition in the UK market.
