SpaceX signed a multibillion-dollar deal to provide computing power to AI startup Reflection AI, the latest in a series of agreements as Elon Musk’s company pushes into AI infrastructure https://t.co/KxWuCjFIEO
SpaceX has signed a new compute lease deal with open-source AI startup Reflection that will pay @SpaceX $150 million per month. The payments would total about $6.3 billion if the agreement runs through the end of its term (2029).
Reflection said the agreement gives it additional computing power, or compute, capacity to accelerate what it calls “American open intelligence.”
Under the agreement, Reflection will get immediate access to Nvidia GB300s, and has agreed to pay SpaceX $150 million per month beginning July 1, 2026, through 2029. Either company can end the contract with 90 days’ notice after the first three months. https://t.co/Kl28as6ep1
I don’t understand who is going to invest in a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran. The U.S. is not doing so, and why would the Qataris or any other country in the Middle East that was just attacked by Iran invest one penny to support Iran’s reconstruction?
Most of the damage inflicted on Iran was directed to military targets. Why would anyone want to help Iran rebuild its military capabilities?
Even if the funds were limited to humanitarian-related infrastructure, if there is such a thing, money is fungible, and we know the first freed up dollar will go to rebuild Iran’s ballistic and nuclear capabilities.
What am I missing?
