and acts as an accelerator for the XPU or the GPU pod in the data center and drive towards a very high attach rate of ideally one-to-one in the data center infrastructure of the future.
That's what's going to allow you to then run, accelerate the current paradigm, but also use that as a substrate to design new kinds of models that will fundamentally be better and more efficient.
More efficient from a time perspective, from a cost perspective, from an energy perspective.
But also, these models are, in a way, just a representation of the computer hardware that they're based on.
And what's easy and hard from a computing and communication perspective on the hardware translates into the model capability.
And with quantum, you have a fundamentally new resource in the data center that's going to allow new model capabilities to be developed and brought to market.
We're talking to customers now.
We've got several active conversations, I think partnerships and early engagement with customers is a big part of our strategy.
The reason that's important is because the challenges of really bringing a new compute
capability into the AI data center are substantial, and you've got to be working with customers out of the gate to really understand those requirements, what moves the needle for them as an organization.
And so that's what we're doing and that's what we're focused on.
In terms of timing, it's a fantastic time to start a company like this.
The underlying hardware has made such tremendous progress in the past 10, 15 years.
And the market is, you know, with the amount of investment that's being made in AI infrastructure, there is clearly a recognition that we need a new approach to drive down the cost per token, to drive down the energy associated with these very large scale data center projects, to make it fundamentally more efficient.
And Quantum promises success.
a more efficient way of translating watts into intelligence.
That's what this enables and unlocks in the long term.
And to me, this is, in many ways, a better idea than putting stuff in space.
Because ultimately, yes, space gives you a cheaper access to energy, and it gives you a better way to dissipate that heat.
But you've got to put it into space, and that takes a lot of fossil fuels.
