Odaily News: At the company's first earnings call, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk stated that SpaceX's AI services will run "exclusively" on NVIDIA systems in the future.
Musk noted that the company considers NVIDIA's Vera Rubin architecture to be the "best AI computing architecture." SpaceX expects its computing capacity to exceed 2 gigawatts (GW) by the end of this year, with plans to increase it to nearly 10 gigawatts by the end of next year.
Additionally, SpaceX plans to deploy NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 rack-scale systems both on the ground and in space, using them for the "Starmind" satellite project, with related satellites expected to begin launching next year.
