NVIDIA reportedly plans a $5B cash investment in Ilya Sutskever’s SSI
A scoop report says NVIDIA is set to invest $5 billion in cash into Ilya Sutskever’s SSI, making it one of the chip company’s largest startup investments.
If confirmed, the deal would be notable for two reasons:
- It underscores NVIDIA’s willingness to make unusually large strategic bets on frontier AI startups.
- It further ties the chip giant to one of the most closely watched new AI labs in the market.
