Article excerpt

News Summary: SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NVIDIA today announced that SpaceXAI will deploy NVIDIA Vera CPUs to accelerate its next generation of agentic AI applications, bringing the first CPU built for AI agents to one of the world’s most ambitious AI deployments. Agentic AI applications increasingly rely on CPUs to orchestrate tools, execute code, process data and run simulations between model calls. SpaceXAI will use Vera to accelerate these application workloads, helping AI agents act faster while keeping GPUs fed and fully utilized. SpaceXAI plans to expand its AI infrastructure behind Grok on NVIDIA Vera Rubin, while extending an optimized Vera Rubin NVL72 into space with its first-generation Starmind satellite. “Agentic AI requires a new kind of computing system - one built not only to generate answers, but to take action,” said Ian Buck, vice president of hyperscale and high-performance computing at NVIDIA. “Vera gives AI agents the CPU performance to act in real time - executing code, processing data and coordinating complex tasks. SpaceXAI is taking this architecture from massive AI factories to the next frontier of computing in orbit.” “Vera gives us the CPU performance and memory bandwidth to run enormous amounts of orchestration, code and data processing while keeping GPUs doing what they do best,” said Mike Nicolls, president of...
