Gate News bot reported that Compute Labs and enterprise AI cloud company NexGen Cloud announced on Wednesday that they have teamed up to begin distributing ownership of a $1 million "public treasury." Compute Labs is dedicated to transforming the industrial-grade GPUs that power AI data centers into tokens that can be spun off. The functionality and profitability of AI infrastructure is largely centralized, often limited to hyperscalers like AWS or large venture-backed companies. However, Compute Labs is trying to give its token holders direct access to the monetization potential of enterprise-grade hardware, such as NVIDIA H200 GPUs, which retail for around $30,000 each. "For investors, this pilot program represents the first opportunity to earn stablecoin yields directly from real-time AI computations, without having to manage hardware or rely on overvalued public stocks," Compute Labs said in a press release. ”

Gate News bot news, tech giant Amazon will use the 1.92 k megawatts of power provided by Talen Energy's Susquehanna nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania to power its AWS cloud and AI servers. Following Microsoft and Meta, Amazon is the latest hyperscale company to directly partner with a large nuclear power plant operator. This deal by Amazon was announced on Wednesday, but it is not a new protocol; rather, it modifies an existing agreement with Talen. The old agreement stipulated that Amazon would build a data center next to the Susquehanna nuclear power plant and draw power directly from the facility without first delivering it to the grid. The deal was blocked by regulators over concerns that customers would unfairly bear the burden of grid operations. Currently, Susquehanna Power Company supplies power to the grid, meaning that every kilowatt-hour of power includes transmission fees for supporting grid maintenance and development. Amazon's user-side solution can avoid these fees.
