Meta’s new deal with Nvidia buys up millions of AI chips
Summary
Meta has signed a multiyear agreement with Nvidia to buy millions of processors (CPUs and GPUs, which are specialized chips for computing tasks) for its data centers that run AI systems. This deal includes Nvidia's Grace and Vera CPUs and Blackwell and Rubin GPUs, with plans to add next-generation Vera CPUs in 2027. Nvidia claims these chips will improve performance-per-watt (how much computing work gets done per unit of electricity used) in Meta's data centers.
