SpaceX's GPU rental business nears $28B annual run rate; OpenAI expands cyber offerings

SpaceX is rapidly expanding its GPU rental business, securing a new deal with Reflection AI that, combined with previous agreements with Anthropic and Google, could generate an estimated $28 billion annually. This positions SpaceX as a major player in the cloud infrastructure market, rivaling established companies like Coreweave. Meanwhile, OpenAI has enhanced its cybersecurity offerings with the GPT-5.5-Cyber model and expanded its Daybreak program to include automated patching, though questions remain about its export control policies compared to competitors like Anthropic. Sakana AI has released Fugu, an orchestration layer designed to intelligently route requests across multiple frontier models, but has faced criticism for opaque benchmarking and cost reporting. AI

IMPACT SpaceX's infrastructure expansion could reshape cloud computing for AI, while OpenAI's cyber model advancements and Sakana's orchestration layer signal evolving AI capabilities and deployment strategies.
