Nvidia-OpenAI partnership strengthens as ChatGPT-maker puts Google TPUs on backseat
is solidifying its partnership with OpenAI after the ChatGPT maker confirmed it has no immediate plans to extensively deploy Google's in-house
artificial intelligence
(AI) chips. This comes despite a recent cloud collaboration between the two AI rivals, a report said.
'We're proud to partner with OpenAI and continue powering the foundation of their work," Nvidia posted on X (formerly Twitter), while resharing a report by news agency Reuters stating OpenAI's decision to not use Google's tensor processing units (TPUs) at scale.
An OpenAI spokesperson told the agency over the weekend that while the AI lab is conducting early tests with some Google TPUs, there are no active plans for large-scale adoption.
The company will continue to rely on Nvidia's graphics processing units (GPUs) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) AI chips to meet its increasing computational needs.

What Google-OpenAI partnership means for Microsoft
This clarification from OpenAI follows a Reuters report just two days prior, which revealed that OpenAI had signed a cloud services deal with
Google Cloud
in May. This agreement marked a notable partnership between direct AI competitors.
The deal grants OpenAI access to Google's infrastructure, supporting the training and deployment of models like ChatGPT and lessening its dependence on Microsoft's Azure Cloud.
Google has expanded the external availability of its TPUs, which were historically reserved for internal use. This initiative has attracted customers such as Apple and AI startups like Anthropic and Safe Superintelligence – founded by OpenAI co-founder Ilya Sutskever. Reportedly, these custom chips offer Google a cost advantage and performance after Nvidia.

Mark Zuckerberg now hires top Apple exec for the unit that made OpenAI 'shutdown' for one-full week
It seems Facebook-and Instagram parent Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is still not done shopping talent for his new AI superintelligence unit. According to a report in Bloomberg, Apple's head of AI models, Ruoming Pang , is leaving the iPhone maker to work at Meta. This marks the latest high-ranking AI executive that Mark Zuckerberg has poached to be part of his new AI superintelligence unit. With this, the Apple exec joins an array of talent Zuckerberg has poached in recent months, including leaders from Google DeepMind, OpenAI , and Safe Superintelligence. Pang is said to be a key part of Apple's in-house team that trained the AI foundation models that are said to underpin Apple Intelligence and other on-device AI features. Pang is reported to offer expertise in designing small, on-device AI models to Meta. Sources told Bloomberg that Ruoming Pang's departure might be the first of many in Apple's troubled AI unit. Meta's aggressive hiring drive for AI talent Meta Platforms is reported to be racing to secure top AI talent for its newly created Superintelligence Labs to better compete with rivals including OpenAI, Google and Anthropic. The Facebook and Instagram parent's aggressive hiring for its unified AI initiative has intensified the talent war in Silicon Valley. OpenAI Chief Research Officer warning to employees ChatGPT-maker OpenAI recently announced a rare company-wide shutdown to give employees time to recharge after months of grueling 80-hour workweeks. According to a report by Wired, the temporary closure comes as the ChatGPT maker fights to retain top talent amid Meta's aggressive $100 million recruitment offers. Chief Research Officer Mark Chen is said to have warned employees in an internal Slack memo that Meta would likely exploit the shutdown period to pressure OpenAI researchers into making quick decisions. "Meta knows we're taking this week to recharge and will take advantage of it to try and pressure you to make decisions fast and in isolation," Mark Chen wrote, in the memo as seen by Wired. Meta's superintelligence lab has hired Lucas Beyer, Alexander Kolesnikov, Xiaohua Zhai, and Trapit Bansal; a foundational contributor to OpenAI's o1 model. Who replaces Ruoming Pang at Apple With Pang's departure, the AFM team will now reportedly be headed by Zhifeng Chen. In a change from a structure under Pang where most of the engineers reported to him directly, the report said that there will be a new organizational layout that includes multiple managers reporting to Chen, who will then have engineers reporting to them. Apple's overall AI strategy is now run primarily by Craig Federighi, Apple's head of software engineering, and Mike Rockwell, who helped create the Apple Vision Pro headset and now leads engineering for Siri.

3 cos frontrunners for Deonar waste treatment project
Mumbai: Three companies emerged as frontrunners when bids were opened on Tuesday for BMC's Rs 2,368-crore bioremediation tender to scientifically treat 185 lakh tonnes of waste at the Deonar dumping ground —one of the oldest and most toxic landfills in the country. Only one of them, Re Sustainability Ltd, has experience in handling Deonar's solid waste; the other two are infrastructure companies. One of the three—Navayuga Engineering Ltd—had tied up with Adani Enterprises for a 47.8km bypass project in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, which was launched in 2021. Re Sustainability is the parent company of Chennai MSW Pvt Ltd, which is currently working on seting up a waste-to-energy plant at Deonar to process 600 tonnes of solid waste daily that is expected to be commissioned by this Oct. The other company—HG Infra Engineering Ltd—has handled highways, bridges, Metro, railways and renewable energy projects, according to its official website. Officials said a scrutiny of the bids packet was still underway as of late Tuesday evening. "The financial packet will be opened on July 11, after which the lowest bidder will be decided," said a civic official.

The urgency ties into the state cabinet's Oct 2023 approval to hand over a portion of the Deonar land to Dharavi Redevelopment Project Pvt Ltd—a joint venture between Navbharat Mega Developers Pvt Ltd (an Adani Group special purpose vehicle) and the state govt. BMC had extended the deadline for submission of bids three times after floating the tender this May—from June 3 to June 23, then to July 1, and finally to July 4. The civic body had held a pre-bid meeting with interested bidders. Officials said several interested parties sought more time to study the entire process, apart from raising questions about certain environmental permissions, owing to which the extensions were granted. The queries raised by the prospective bidders were mainly related to logistical challenges. Many of them shared their concern over how such a large pile of legacy waste could be cleared within three years.
