Sunil Gupta, chief executive officer and co-founder of Yotta Data Services, said, “I’m ambitious, I’m hungry. I’m willing to take a bet on the future of AI.” The company is aiming to offer high-performance computing capabilities from data centers in India in order to help the country’s corporations, startups and researchers to develop their own AI services. The most important part of this strategy are Nvidia’s chips which will be used to train large language models and building applications like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft GitHub Copilot.

Yotta Data Services' 16,000 Nvidia GPUs have been delivered. The graphics processing units run $30,000 to $40,000 each and are called Hoppers. Yotta’s haul of Nvidia chips will reach about 20,000 by June but still falls far behind tech giants like Microsoft Corp. who purchase them by the tens of thousands. Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg said he aims to get 350,000 H100s by year-end. Tata Group and Reliance Industries Ltd., which plan to develop AI infrastructure too, have yet to order Nvidia’s most advanced chips.
