Model-agnostic AI compute infrastructure rented to frontier AI labs
Build and operate large-scale data-center compute infrastructure, remain agnostic about which model runs on it, and sell the capacity to AI companies that need compute at scale. The transcript contrasts this infrastructure business with the riskier business of developing a frontier model.

Problem: AI labs need access to large amounts of compute, while the supply of available compute is constrained and building a frontier model requires tens of billions of dollars of capital.
For: Frontier AI companies such as Anthropic and OpenAI, as well as other large organizations that need compute at scale.
Examples
- SpaceX rented compute from its Colossus server collection to Anthropic and Google; its Elon Web Services AI revenue was reported as more than tripling quarter over quarter to $2.6 billion.
