# Elon Musk officially announced the launch of the super AI training cluster Colossus, planning to add another 100,000 NVIDIA GPUs

According to the financial news app Zhitong Finance, xAI, an artificial intelligence startup founded by Tesla (TSLA.US) CEO Elon Musk, launched its massive artificial intelligence training system Colossus last weekend.

In a post on X, Musk stated that the artificial intelligence training cluster is powered by 100,000 NVIDIA (NVDA.US) H100 GPUs, and the construction process took 122 days.

"Colossus is the most powerful artificial intelligence training system in the world," Musk said. "Furthermore, the scale of this system will double in the next few months to 200,000 GPUs (including 50,000 H200). Our team, NVIDIA, and our many partners/suppliers have done an outstanding job."

The launch of this artificial intelligence system indicates that the war for dominance in artificial intelligence is driving up the demand for NVIDIA's coveted processors.

Earlier this year, Meta Platforms (META.US) CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced in a post on Instagram that his company plans to integrate 350,000 H100 GPUs into its artificial intelligence infrastructure by the end of 2024. Meta released Llama 3.1 405B this summer.

xAI introduced the Grok chatbot last year, competing with Microsoft (MSFT.US)-backed OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's (GOOGL.US) Gemini, and Anthropic's Claude. Last month, xAI released beta versions of Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini.

In a blog post, xAI stated: "We have launched Grok-2, positioning us at the forefront of artificial intelligence development. Our focus is on enhancing core reasoning capabilities through our new computing cluster. In the coming months, we will have more development results to share with everyone."

In the spring of this year, xAI's valuation reached $240 billion in the latest Series B financing round. Musk is also pushing Tesla to invest $5 billion in xAI
