Our normal community helps the massive clustering of GPUs and permits them to speak in a short time. So, we will create these teams of GPUs. We will marshal them collectively. The opposite guys can’t do this,” Ellison stated through the earnings name, based on a transcript from The Motley Idiot.

In distinction, different infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) platforms on supply from different hyperscalers, based on Ellison, are bodily constructing new {hardware} to have the ability to help such an analogous AI cluster.
