"Microsoft chose not to exercise a nearly $12 billion option to buy more data-center capacity from CoreWeave, people familiar with the matter said, a sign that big tech companies are starting to right-size and tailor their AI budgets.

CoreWeave, which is readying for the year’s most closely watched IPO, quickly found another buyer — OpenAI snapped up the contract last week — and Microsoft has reiterated its plan to spend $80 billion on AI. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told thousands of eager fans at the company’s annual conference on Tuesday that the appetite for AI is only growing, and the limiting factor is the raw power needed to run increasingly gargantuan data centers.

Coreweave and Microsoft declined to comment.

The Financial Times reported earlier this month that Microsoft had “walked away from some of its commitments,” a characterization that CoreWeave disputed."

"In my years writing this newsletter I have come across few companies as rotten as CoreWeave — an "AI cloud provider" that sells GPU compute to AI companies looking to run or train their models.

CoreWeave had intended to go public last week, with an initial valuation of $35bn. While it’s hardly a recognizable name — like, say, OpenAI, or Microsoft, or Nvidia — this company is worth observing, if not for the fact that it’s arguably the first major IPO that we’ve seen from the current generative AI hype bubble, and undoubtedly the biggest. Moreover, it’s a company that deals in the infrastructure aspect of AI, where one would naturally assume is where all the money really is — putting up the servers for hyperscalers to run their hallucination-prone, unprofitable models.

You’d assume that such a company would be a thriving, healthy business. And yet, a cursory glance at its financial disclosure documents reveals a business that’s precarious at best, and, in my most uncharitable opinion, utterly rancid. If this company was in any other industry, it would be seen as such. Except, it’s one of the standard bearers of the generative AI boom, and so, it exists within its own reality distortion field.

Regardless, CoreWeave’s IPO plans appear to have been delayed, and it’s unclear when it’ll eventually make its debut on the public markets. I assume the reasons for the delay are as follows."
