Invest in the next AWS
If you pause for a moment to look around, you’ll notice something so ordinary, it’s almost invisible: everyone is clothed. It’s so ingrained in our daily lives that we often overlook the transformative journey to affordable, accessible clothing.
Centuries ago, creating garments was an extraordinarily laborious process. Fibers were spun into thread by hand, woven into fabric on manually operated looms, and sewn together stitch by stitch. This was the norm until human ingenuity stepped in with a wave of mechanical innovations. The spinning wheel streamlined thread-making, while devices like the flying shuttle significantly sped up weaving. Mechanical looms followed, further accelerating production but they now faced a critical bottleneck: power. For most of history, the only way to drive these machines was through muscle—either human or animal.
That all changed with the arrival of the steam engine - it unleashed a new, abundant source of power that could run looms around the clock. The result? Clothing went from being a luxury for the wealthy, to a necessity everyone could afford. Steam power wove its way into the fabric of society, democratizing access to one of life’s most basic needs.
Fast forward to today, and another revolution is upon us. AI is taking the world by storm, promising to transform industries from healthcare to logistics. But like those early spinning wheels and looms, AI faces its own bottleneck: compute power. Training advanced AI models requires immense computational resources, and most companies rely on cloud infrastructure to meet these demands.
Most of this compute power comes from the dominant cloud providers—AWS(Amazon Web Services), Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure—built primarily on CPUs (Central Processing Units). While reliable, CPUs weren’t designed for the high-intensity workloads that AI demands. That’s where CoreWeave comes in. Unlike traditional providers, CoreWeave focuses on GPUs(Graphic Processing Units), which are designed for high speed, parallel processing - making them ideal for AI. By leveraging GPUs, CoreWeave has managed to cut costs by up to 80% compared to traditional cloud services, offering a faster and more efficient solution for AI-driven businesses.
CoreWeave is doing for AI what the steam engine did for textiles—fueling a dramatic increase in productivity and enabling a new generation of innovators to emerge. Just as steam power once wove a more connected, clothed world, CoreWeave is weaving the infrastructure for an AI-driven future.
