SpaceX执行长马斯克宣布，搭载辉达晶片的首批人工智慧卫星将于明年第四季发射，并预计在2028年达到具规模的商业化。这些部署在太空的资料中心将比传统的伺服器机柜更简单、成本更低且重量更轻。

SpaceX已向美国联邦通信委员会提出申请，计划发射多达一百万颗卫星，以在轨道上执行复杂的人工智慧运算。这项太空资料中心计划不仅是该公司六月首次公开募股的核心亮点，更被视为比地面资料中心更具成本效益且环保的替代方案。

该公司将独家采用辉达的技术来建置其太空人工智慧基础设施，放弃了原先考虑的其他晶片设计。辉达也宣布SpaceX将使用其Vera中央处理器来加速Grok及下一代人工智慧代理的运算能力。

SpaceX CEO Elon Musk announced that the company's first AI satellites, powered by Nvidia chips, will launch in the fourth quarter of next year and reach significant scale by 2028. These space-based data centers are designed to be significantly simpler, lower in cost, and lighter than traditional server racks.

The company has filed an application with the FCC to launch a network of up to one million satellites dedicated to complex artificial intelligence computing in orbit. This orbital data center initiative was a central pillar of SpaceX's blockbuster IPO in June, pitched as a cheaper and more environmentally friendly alternative to terrestrial facilities.

SpaceX will exclusively utilize Nvidia's technology for its orbital AI infrastructure, deciding against other chip designs that were initially considered. Nvidia also announced that SpaceX will use its Vera CPU to accelerate the computing power for Grok and its next generation of AI agents.
