We're excited to support @nvidia’s Open Agent Safety Platform at @CrusoeAI! Running mission-critical workloads with AI means security has to be built into the infrastructure layer, not bolted on after the fact. By engineering security into the foundation of a platform, we help customers build with both speed and security, without having to trade off one for the other. At Crusoe, one of our core values is to move fast and make things. Partnering on open, verifiable security infrastructure is how we do that responsibly as agentic AI scales.
Today, with over 100 industry partners, we introduced the NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform, bringing together OpenShell and Sentry. Artificial intelligence is extraordinary technology that will advance discovery, productivity, security, health, and prosperity for generations to come. But its full promise can only be realized when people have confidence that AI is being built to be safe and deployed with wisdom and responsibility. This is bigger than a single product. It's the beginning of an open ecosystem to build the trust layer for safe agent systems. Together, we are building the foundation of the AI economy. Trust and innovation are not in conflict. Safety is how trust is earned. We must build not only the most capable AI, but the most trusted AI, so that this extraordinary technology can realize its enormous promise for the world. nvda.ws/4hcoq7m

AI is driving a resurgence in American manufacturing. This is electrical switchgear preparing to ship to a @CrusoeAI’s data center, all manufactured by Crusoe Industries in a new factory we opened in Tulsa, where we have hired hundreds of skilled American tradespeople.

🚨WATCH: Loudoun County resident defends the data centers powering his community: “Data centers are about economic opportunity—American jobs, American innovation, American investment and, ultimately, national security.” “They have been so good for Loudoun County.”

Feels like everyone agrees that @CrusoeAI is like the good guy people root for in building ai data centers. Their whole mission centers on using “trapped energy” not already on our power grid. Their whole story is fascinating -> from a first product that used off-gassed methane from oil fields to fuel bitcoin mining rigs to a rumored $30B valuation in 8 years

There’s been a lot of questions about the recent statements from @GregAbbott_TX about data centers in Texas. @CrusoeAI supports Governor Abbott in driving greater transparency in the buildout of data centers in Texas. Crusoe is investing for the long term and we’re committed to doing that the right way and making sure our communities benefit from these investments alongside us. From energy, water, jobs and opportunities, Crusoe is committed to being a great partner. Read more about our perspective and what we’re already doing today in our blog crusoe.ai/resources/blog/the…

"The only data center developers that have brought on more than 500 MW in a year are the hyperscalers, CoreWeave, Crusoe, and SpaceX" - @GavinSBaker Shoutout to our partner @CrusoeAI. Nuclear-powered data centers coming soon. From @InvestLikeBest
My seventh conversation with @GavinSBaker. It's about the gap between what the market is doing and what companies are seeing. It's been a tough month or so for public AI names, but there's no sign of a slowdown on the ground in Silicon Valley. We discuss: - Why old GPUs are getting more expensive - Open source vs the frontier - Claude as Wall Street's Walter Cronkite - Whether the buildout gets funded out of cash flow or debt - SpaceX as a data center company - And more Enjoy!
