Meta has formed a multiyear partnership with Nvidia to advance its artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure.
The collaboration aims to support Meta’s development of data centers for AI training and inference and its core business.
The partnership will involve deep co-design across CPUs, GPUs, networking, and software to optimize AI models.
Both companies’ engineers will work together to improve new AI capabilities used worldwide.
Meta adopted Nvidia’s technology for WhatsApp private messaging and larger infrastructure efforts.
Meta’s AI capabilities are primarily aimed at maximizing the efficiency and yield of advertising, contributing to a $60 billion annualized run rate in ad products.
Meta’s AI initiatives, including smart glasses, are geared towards keeping users within its ecosystem and monetizing through ads, engagement, and new formats rather than a standalone commerce platform.
Meta and AI are increasingly intertwined, potentially leading to a future rebranded name like “MetAI.”
