CoreWeave與OpenAI簽署119億美元合約,為IPO鋪路

由Echo Wang報導

紐約(路透社)- 人工智能初創公司CoreWeave,獲得Nvidia(納斯達克:NVDA)支持,已與OpenAI簽署了一份為期五年的合約,價值達119億美元,這一合約在其備受期待的股市上市前達成。

根據CoreWeave周一發出的聲明,該協議將使CoreWeave為OpenAI提供人工智能基礎設施,此消息確認了路透社早前的獨家報導。

這項交易將使OpenAI在CoreWeave中獲得股份,CoreWeave將在首次公開募股時通過私募的方式發行價值3.5億美元的股票給這家ChatGPT的開發商。

總部位於新澤西州的CoreWeave,是美國最熱門的人工智能初創公司之一,這次向OpenAI發行的股份不會為其帶來任何收益。

OpenAI的首席執行官Sam Altman表示:「CoreWeave是OpenAI基礎設施組合中重要的一環,補充了我們與微軟(納斯達克:MSFT)和甲骨文(紐約證券交易所:ORCL)之間的商業合作,以及我們與軟銀(東京證券交易所:9984)在Stargate上的合資企業。」

這項交易在CoreWeave即將進行的重磅股票發售前,為其提供了重大助力,預計將成為2025年美國IPO陣容中的焦點。

目前,隨著投資者對生成式人工智能的興趣急劇上升,CoreWeave與OpenAI的討論正值其時。這一人工智能熱潮推動了Nvidia等晶片製造商以及其他大型科技公司的增長,並驅動了對數據中心和高性能伺服器等基礎設施的全球需求激增。

如果CoreWeave的IPO成功,將為其他最近考慮進入公開市場的人工智能初創公司鋪平道路。據路透社去年報導,數據中心運營商Switch(紐約證券交易所:SWCH)正在考慮以約400億美元的估值進行IPO,包括債務。

明星IPO

CoreWeave成立於2017年,為人工智能工作負載提供數據中心和高性能晶片的訪問,主要由Nvidia供應。它的競爭對手包括微軟的Azure和亞馬遜(納斯達克:AMZN)的AWS等雲服務提供商。

CoreWeave的客戶包括Meta(納斯達克:META)、IBM(紐約證券交易所:IBM)和微軟等大型科技公司,據路透社在11月報導,該公司在上市時預計將瞄準超過350億美元的估值。

在3月的IPO申請中,CoreWeave報告2024年的收入為19.2億美元,而前一年為2.289億美元。同期其淨虧損從2023年的5.937億美元擴大至8.634億美元。大約三分之二的收入來自微軟,這是該公司的最大客戶。

據路透社整理的數據,CoreWeave在12輪融資中籌集了超過145億美元的債務和股本。去年,CoreWeave在歷史上最大的私人債務融資之一中籌集了超過70億美元,由資產管理公司黑石(紐約證券交易所:BX)和Magnetar主導。

摩根士丹利、摩根大通(紐約證券交易所:JPM)和高盛是CoreWeave即將上市的主要承銷商。CoreWeave的股票預計將在納斯達克以CRWV的代碼進行交易。

這份合約的簽署不僅展示了CoreWeave在AI領域的增長潛力,還顯示出大型科技公司對AI基礎設施需求的迫切性。隨著更多企業進入AI市場,未來的競爭將愈發激烈,這也可能改變整個科技行業的格局。這樣的發展不僅對投資者有利,也可能為用戶帶來更多創新和更高效的服務。

Generate an ultra-realistic, highly ultra-detailed, 8k resolution with 1080x1080 pixel, true-to-life portrait of me using the uploaded image for reference (preserved the likeness and the original face for reference). Create a portrait of a  fair-skinned woman with long, curly dark hair styled in a high ponytail, her head turned to the side, her expression neutral and serene; her makeup features defined eyebrows, subtle eyeliner, light blush, and glossy lips; she wears dangling earrings with a floral design; she has a piercing in her ear; the image is in ultra-high 8K resolution, showcasing detailed skin textures, crisp edges, and sharp focus on her eyes; a medium shot, taken from the side to emphasize her profile, with a shallow depth of field that softly blurs the background; soft, diffused lighting illuminates her face evenly, creating subtle shadows and highlights, with a warm color palette of soft browns and creams; she is wearing a dark strapless top; the background is a soft, neutral tone, ensuring the focus remains on the subject; no additional props are present; photorealistic style, akin to a raw camera capture, is achieved using an 85mm lens, ISO 100, and an aperture of f/2.0 for a shallow depth of field and soft background blur.

Base Setup
keep 100 percent facial information adherence of the attached image and turn her into a lone night hiker standing in the shallow river at the mouth of the canyon, captured as a live action photograph or movie still, not an illustration or CGI render, with an alluring, confident, quietly sexy mood.

Shot and Camera
Three quarter body shot from slightly low height on the riverbank, placing her on the left third while the water leads into the dark canyon and the star filled sky dominates the top of the frame, preserving the original wide vertical composition.

Identity and Pose
She has a slim athletic build, natural proportions, medium length loose hair, and lightly tanned skin, 8k Photorealistic and hyper realistic. She stands barefoot in the water with one leg forward, hips relaxed, wearing a fitted cropped technical top and separate high waisted trail shorts with an open lightweight jacket slipping off one shoulder, one hand loosely holding a headlamp at her side and the other brushing hair from her face as she looks up at the stars.

Lighting and Environment
Keep the soft starlight and faint glow from the distant horizon, giving a gentle rim on her shoulders and hair while a subtle fill from the reflected sky reveals her features. The canyon walls, river reflections, pebbled shore, and dense star field stay exactly like the reference, with small ripples around her feet grounding her in the water.

Masking and Constraints
Change only by adding the subject and her outfit, keep lighting, perspective, white balance, canyon geometry, and river reflections the same, with realistic scale, body proportions, and clear contact between feet and water surface. Change only the requested element and keep lighting, perspective, white balance, pose, face geometry, body proportions, and silhouette the same, and absolutely avoid added text, painterly or toon styling, CGI look, blown highlights, banding, plastic skin, overly tidy backgrounds, or floating feet while requiring consistent perspective, consistent white balance, subtle film like grain, and physically correct contact shadows and reflections.
