Orbital Computing Gains Traction As Tech Leaders Explore AI Infrastructure
Google co-founder Larry Page’s prediction that virtually all computing could eventually take place in space has won praise from Elon Musk, reviving the debate over the future of artificial intelligence infrastructure. Page’s vision, which includes moving computing power beyond Earth, has sparked interest in space-based data centres as a potential alternative to conventional data centres. Google is already exploring this concept through Project Suncatcher, an initiative to test its Tensor Processing Units in orbit. This development was first reported by an unknown source.
