Hewlett Packard Enterprise has struck a deal worth over US$1 billion (A$1.6 billion) to provide Elon Musk’s social media platform X with servers optimised for artificial intelligence work, according to Bloomberg News.
The agreement was reached late last year, the report said, adding that competitors Dell Technologies and Super Micro Computer had also bid to sell the equipment.
Hewlett Packard declined to comment on the report.
AI servers have been seeing strong demand from enterprises looking for hardware capable of powering artificial intelligence applications.
Musk’s companies, including Tesla and xAI, have emerged as major customers for such hardware.
