NVIDIA Vera Powers SpaceXAI's Agentic AI & Grok Expansion

1h ago·0:00 listen·Source: Engineering.com

Summary

SpaceXAI will deploy NVIDIA Vera CPUs for its next generation of agentic AI applications. This brings Vera, a CPU architecture designed for AI agent workloads, into SpaceXAI’s infrastructure. Here's the thing: Agentic AI applications use CPUs to coordinate tools, execute code, process data, and run simulations. SpaceXAI plans to use Vera for these tasks to improve agent responsiveness and support steady GPU utilization. What's interesting is that SpaceXAI also plans to expand the AI infrastructure behind Grok on NVIDIA Vera Rubin. They will deploy an optimized Vera Rubin NVL72 system in their first-generation Starmind satellite. NVIDIA Vera includes 88 NVIDIA-designed Olympus cores and LPDDR5X memory. NVIDIA reports up to 1.8 times faster task completion than x86 CPUs across various workloads. The Vera Rubin platform combines NVIDIA accelerated computing, NVLink interconnect, and other technologies to deliver high performance and energy efficiency. SpaceXAI and NVIDIA are also working on AI computing infrastructure for orbital use. SpaceXAI’s planned first-generation Starmind AI satellite will be based on an optimized NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 rack-scale system. This extends the same architecture used on Earth to space deployments. This collaboration creates a single computing framework across different environments, from Earth-based data centers to orbital AI infrastructure.
