Chip manufacturer
Nvidia
will inject an investment of US $ 100 billion or around Rp1,655 trillion to
OPENAI
At the same time supplying their data center chip.
The cooperation between two large large US (US) companies in the global artificial intelligence industry (AI) shows the increasingly overlapping interests of various technological giants that developed sophisticated AI systems.

This agreement provides NVIDIA financial ownership in the world’s leading AI company, which has become their important customer.
On the other hand, this investment provides the opening of funds and access needed to buy sophisticated chips that are the key to maintaining their dominance in increasingly competitive landscapes.
Competitors of the two companies may worry that this partnership will damage competition.
According to sources close to OpenAI, this agreement will involve two separate but interrelated transactions.
Nvidia will start investing in openi for shares without voting rights after the final agreement, then OpenAI can use the funds to buy Nvidia chips.
“It all started with computing,” Openai CEO Sam Altman said in a statement, quoted from
Reuters
.
“Computing infrastructure will be the basis of the future economy, and we will take advantage of what we have built with Nvidia to create new breakthroughs in artificial intelligence and empower people and businesses with these technology on a large scale,” he added.
The two companies signed a memorandum of understanding to implement at least 10 Gigawatts of the Nvidia system for opening and said they plan to complete the details of the partnership in the next few weeks.The power needed for the chips is equivalent to the needs of more than 8 million households in the US.
Nvidia shares rose to 4.4 percent after the announcement to the highest record of intraday.
Based on the new agreement, after both parties reached a definitive agreement regarding the purchase of the NVIDIA system by Openai, Nvidia will make an initial investment of US $ 10 billion.Open was last estimated to have a value of US $ 500 billion.
Nvidia itself will start sending hardware starting at the end of 2026, with the first computing power of 1 Gigawatt will be implemented in the second half of the year on its new platform called Vera Rubin.
Analysts say this agreement is positive for Nvidia, but also worrying whether some Nvidia investment funds may return to him in the form of chip purchases.
“On the one hand, this helps OpenAI realize ambitious goals in computing infrastructure, and helps Nvidia ensure it is realized. On the other hand, the concerns of ‘cycles’ have been raised in the past, and this will strengthen it further,” said Analyst Bernstein, Stacy Rasgon.
Open, like Google, Amazon, and others, have worked on plans to build their own AI chips, aiming for alternatives that are cheaper than Nvidia.
A source who knows this problem said this agreement did not change the ongoing opening computing plan, including these efforts or his partnership with Microsoft.
Openai itself is working with designers Broadcom and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) to develop custom chips.
