Thinking Machines Lab与Google Cloud签署数十亿美元算力协议

ME News report, April 22 (UTC+8). According to Dongcha Beating monitoring, Thinking Machines Lab—founded by Mira Murati, the former OpenAI Chief Technology Officer—has signed a multi-billion-dollar AI infrastructure agreement with Google Cloud. The agreement includes Nvidia’s latest GB300 chip-powered computing system, along with supporting model training and deployment services. Thinking Machines Lab is one of the first customers to use Google Cloud’s GB300 system. Google says the system improves training and inference speed by 2x compared with the previous-generation GPU. This is the first time Thinking Machines Lab has signed an agreement with a cloud service provider. Previously, the company had partnered with Nvidia and received investment from it, but had not used any third-party cloud platforms. The agreement is non-exclusive, allowing Thinking Machines Lab to use multiple cloud providers simultaneously in the future.

Google’s press release specifically mentioned support for the company’s reinforcement learning workloads. Its first product, Tinker, is based on a reinforcement learning architecture for automatically generating custom frontier models. After leaving OpenAI in February 2025, Murati founded Thinking Machines Lab and completed a $2 billion seed round at a $12 billion valuation. Recently, Google has signed deals with multiple AI developers: earlier this month, Anthropic signed multi-GW TPU agreements with Google. This week, it also signed a training and deployment agreement with Amazon for up to 5GW. (Source: BlockBeats)
