Nscale signed a multi-year agreement to deploy up to 100,000 Nvidia Vera Rubin GPUs for Figure at the provider's Barstow, Texas, data center. The contract has an initial value of $3.5 billion and is intended to exceed $6 billion over time. Nscale will make a strategic investment in Figure and become its preferred compute provider; Figure says it will use the capacity to train its Helix model.
