PALO ALTO — Inflection AI has announced a new funding round of $1.3 billion, led by Microsoft, Reid Hoffman, Bill Gates, Eric Schmidt, and NVIDIA, bringing its total funding to $1.525 billion. This capital infusion supports the development of its groundbreaking personal AI product, Pi, and the construction of the world’s largest AI cluster in collaboration with CoreWeave and NVIDIA.

The cluster, powered by 22,000 NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPUs, is designed to train and deploy advanced large language models (LLMs) and boasts a computing capacity of 22 exaFLOPS in 16-bit precision mode. This achievement positions it as one of the most powerful AI infrastructures globally, dedicated to delivering transformative AI experiences.

A New Era for Personal AI
Pi, launched in May 2023, represents a new class of personal AI designed to provide natural, conversational interactions. Acting as a supportive companion, Pi offers text and voice conversations, friendly advice, and concise, personalized information. Built on Inflection AI’s proprietary LLM technology, Pi aims to simplify everyday tasks and foster trusted, meaningful connections with users.

Leaders in AI Collaboration
“We’re at an inflection point where personal AI will transform lives,” said Mustafa Suleyman, CEO and co-founder of Inflection AI. “This collaboration with NVIDIA, Microsoft, CoreWeave, and other visionary leaders is driving the creation of advanced, accessible AI tools.”

Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, added, “Inflection AI is setting a new benchmark by leveraging NVIDIA AI technology to train massive generative AI models. This work is paving the way for innovative personal digital assistants.”

Microsoft’s CTO, Kevin Scott, emphasized the importance of accessibility: “Inflection AI is leading the way in making trusted, user-friendly AI experiences available to all. Their work demonstrates the immense possibilities of AI technology.”

CoreWeave CEO Michael Intrator expressed his excitement, noting, “Partnering with Inflection AI enables us to deliver the power of supercomputing to groundbreaking consumer applications.”

Cluster Milestones and Global AI Leadership
The cluster, designed specifically for AI applications, is one of the largest of its kind, rivaling the top-ranked supercomputers worldwide. Its unprecedented capabilities are already evident, with record-breaking performance on MLPerf, the industry-standard benchmark for AI training and inference.

Pi: Accessible Anytime, Anywhere
Pi offers users seamless connectivity across platforms, providing an engaging and intuitive AI experience. Available for free, users can interact with Pi on:

  • Web: pi.ai
  • Mobile: iPhone and iPad (Android coming soon)
  • Messaging: WhatsApp and SMS at +1 (314) 333-1111
