AsianFin — OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said more than one million GPUs will be online by the end of this year, underscoring the explosive growth in AI infrastructure.

In a post shared on July 20 local time, Altman expressed pride in the team’s achievement but emphasized the need to scale further, suggesting they should start figuring out how to increase that number by a factor of 100.

The comment reflects the mounting compute demands of advanced AI models and the arms race among leading tech companies to secure high-performance chips, particularly as global interest in generative AI continues to soar.
