Citing a new Epoch AI analysis of satellite imagery (via METR's latest Substack), Huawei's flagship AI data center (Horumger) holds roughly 7% of the compute of xAI's Colossus 2 — about 105,000 Ascend 910C chips, or 81,000 H100-equivalents.
The chart shows Colossus 2 already above 1M H100-equivalents and slated to approach 1.8M by 2027, while Huawei Horinger's plans through 2028 stay well below 500K, leading Epoch AI to conclude it will remain far behind the largest AI data centers through 2028.
