OpenAI has partnered with Google Cloud to bolster its computing capacity, shifting away from its heavy reliance on Microsoft. This collaboration, finalized in May after extensive negotiations, aligns with OpenAI's strategic goal to diversify cloud suppliers, now including Microsoft, CoreWeave, and Oracle. The infrastructure will span regions in the US, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, and the UK. CEO Sam Altman previously highlighted the urgent need for GPU resources to support AI model deployment, indicating significant industry shifts.
