Perplexity taps CoreWeave’s NVIDIA GB200 clusters for next-gen AI

AI inference is the step where a trained artificial intelligence model uses its learned patterns to analyze new data and produce an output — for example, predicting a stock trend, flagging a medical image, or generating text, much like using a recipe to cook a meal. It matters to investors because inference determines real-world performance, speed, and cost of AI features, affects user experience and scalability, and influences operating expenses, regulatory compliance, and competitive advantage.

Kubernetes is an open-source system that automates running and managing many pieces of software across groups of computers, like a conductor coordinating musicians so each piece plays at the right time and place. For investors, it matters because companies that use it can deploy updates faster, scale services up or down automatically, and cut infrastructure costs — factors that influence growth, reliability and operating margins.

Multi-cloud is the practice of using services from two or more cloud computing providers instead of relying on just one. For investors,…
