The raging demand for computers to run AI models has only accelerated, but there are two major obstacles that anyone in the business needs to overcome: getting the right chips, and getting them into data centers where they can start generating revenue.
General Compute, a new inference neocloud — a company that rents out AI processing power, specializing in the phase when models are running and responding to users rather than being trained — has answers to those questions that illuminate where the AI ecosystem is headed. Those answers helped it raise a $15 million seed round at a $60 million post-money valuation, led by FUSE VC with participation from Carya Venture Partners and Village Global Ventures.
