Nvidia and Foxconn are working together to build so-called "AI factories," a new class of data centers that promise to provide supercomputing powers to
So can someone explain what an AI factory is, from an engineering perspective? The fact there's competition to build them suggests it's not just a marketing term, but I can't find a clear answer with a quick search.

I can only imagine these are just crypto mining farms, but instead of running mining they train ai models
I mean, isn't that just a normal datacenter, then? Those already exist, and Foxconn at least probably owns some.
Yes, but probably more video card focused than running the biggest epyc or xeon processors.

Yep, just looked into Dojo. They don't use the same term at all. -1 to the journalist for making it sound like an industry standard thing.
