Big Tech piles on $350B in debt to fuel AI data center race

The five largest U.S. tech companies—Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Oracle—have doubled their debt to $350 billion over five years to fund AI data centers. While investors have been supportive, Amazon's recent $25 billion bond issuance received a cool reception, signaling limits to market appetite. Oracle was downgraded by S&P due to rising AI spending, and Intel's debt woes serve as a cautionary tale. Hyperscalers plan to spend up to $725 billion this year, primarily on data centers and Nvidia chips.

A Coding Guide to NVIDIA’s Tile-Based GPU Programming: From cuTile and Triton Kernels to Flash Attention

This tutorial explores NVIDIA's tile-based GPU programming with TileGym, building a Colab workflow that runs across different hardware. We probe the CUDA environment, try the real cuTile backend, and fall back to Triton when standard Colab GPUs lack the cuTile stack. We learn the core tile idea: operate on whole data tiles instead of single threads, then load, compute, and store them. We implement vector addition, fused GELU, row-wise softmax, tiled matrix multiplication, and flash attention, checking each against PyTorch.
