Recursive Superintelligence signs $410 compute deal with Amazon
TechCrunch AI Russell Brandom
Recursive Superintelligence announced a $400 million compute deal with Amazon Web Services to support its research into self-improving AI systems. The multi-year agreement represents the bulk of the company's $650 million in funding raised since emerging from stealth in May, with CEO Richard Socher stating he expects it to be among the smallest compute deals the company will sign. The arrangement frees Recursive to allocate most capital directly to compute infrastructure rather than hiring, with plans to release tangible AI products by October 2024.
