Happy Thursday, readers. We are nearing the end of the week, so let’s power through.
But first, let's talk about the AI market.
The global AI market is poised for growth, with projections indicating a surge "from $196.63 billion in 2023 to a staggering $1.81 trillion by 2030," as per Grand View Research. This expansion is driven by the increasing adoption of AI across various industries, including healthcare, finance, manufacturing and customer service. Advancements in machine learning (ML), natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision are also fueling the development of innovative AI applications that are changing the way businesses operate and interact with consumers.
Positioning their cloud service at the forefront of this expanding market by providing critical infrastructure for the next generation of AI applications is TensorWave.
TensorWave is a cloud platform optimized for AI tasks. Powered by advanced AMD MI300X accelerators and a superior inference engine, TensorWave is a vital player in making AI computing more accessible by offering a strong alternative in a market with limited competition. Their cloud platform provides exceptional scalability and performance, and eliminates the need for long wait times and the challenges of managing on-site servers.
Recently, the AI GPU cloud platform closed a $43 million SAFE funding round. This round, led by Nexus VP, marks the largest SAFE funding for any Nevada-based startup to date.
TensorWave plans to expand their operations using the new funding. They will increase the capacity of their main data center by adding thousands of powerful AMD Instinct MI300X GPUs.
Additionally, they will hire more staff, introduce a new inference platform and prepare for the future integration of the even more advanced AMD Instinct MI325X GPUs.
“We are thrilled to have the support of such esteemed investors, partners, and the State of Nevada as we embark on this next phase of growth,” said Darrick Horton, CEO of TensorWave. “This funding allows us to significantly scale our team and deploy thousands of AMD Instinct AI accelerators to empower the startups and enterprises shaping our technological future.”
Other investors in this round include Maverick Capital, Translink Capital, Javelin Venture Partners, StartupNV and AMD Ventures.
As for the future, TensorWave is scheduled to introduce Manifest in the last quarter of 2024. Manifest is a specialized enterprise inference platform designed to handle larger amounts of information while maintaining fast response times. This platform allows for efficient analysis of complex documents.
Lastly, following AMD's announcement of their upcoming Instinct MI325X GPU, TensorWave is making preparations to include access to these advanced GPUs on their cloud platform. This is expected to be available by the end of 2024.
Be part of the discussion about the latest trends and developments in the Generative AI space at Generative AI Expo, taking place February 11-13, 2025 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Generative AI Expo covers the evolution of GenAI and features conversations focused on the potential for GenAI across industries and how the technology is already being used to create new opportunities for businesses to improve operations, enhance customer experiences, and create new growth opportunities.
