Amazon acquires billions in Nvidia AI hardware, faces power infrastructure delays
Business Insider reports that Amazon has acquired billions of dollars worth of Nvidia AI systems, including GB300 racks, but is currently unable to power them on due to insufficient data center infrastructure. This situation has led to a significant stockpile of advanced AI hardware. Wccftech further claims that a report indicates $5 billion of these Nvidia GB300 rack deliveries occurred in August alone, contributing to Amazon's soaring AI infrastructure spending and negative cash flow. Multiple general news outlets, including Newsquawk, Investing.com, Yahoo Finance, marketscreener.com, and Moomoo, have widely disseminated Business Insider's initial report. The core claim of Amazon stockpiling unpowered hardware originates from Business Insider, with other outlets largely reiterating this information without official confirmation from Amazon or Nvidia.
