Microsoft unveils a huge two-state AI engine designed to merge datacenters

• The system links distant facilities to run massive training workloads continuously
• High-speed fiber keeps GPUs active by avoiding slow data bottlenecks
• Two-story chip density increases compute power while lowering inter-rack latency

Microsoft has unveiled its first AI superfactory, linking large AI datacenters in Wisconsin and Atlanta through a dedicated fiber network designed for high-speed movement of training data.

The design places chips close together across two floors to increase density and reduce lag.
