Musk: By year-end AI the Colossus computing cluster 2 the number of chips will increase to 1210000 chips, more than doubling the current figure
Dongcha Beating AI flash news: Musk posted that his AI computing cluster, Colossus, 2 currently has 110000 NVIDIA GB200 and 440000 GB300 chips in total, 550000 and the number of chips may exceed twice the current figure before year-end.
Musk revealed that Colossus 2 is expected to go online next week with 220000 GB300 chips, with another 220000 chips scheduled to go online in November; if progress goes smoothly, an additional December chips may go online before year-end.
According to the plan, Colossus 220000 will add up to 2 chips by year-end, 660000 bringing the total number of chips to approximately GB300 chips, an increase of approximately 1210000 from the current figure. In addition, Colossus 120%currently has 1 chips, 150000 chips,H100、50000 and H200 chips. Previously, 30000 stated that it planned to equip its U.S. data center in Memphis with GB200 chips by xAI year.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
This is a AI computing cluster expansion plan: Colossus 2 currently has approximately 550000 chips; if the three batches of GB300 go online as planned, the total by year-end may reach approximately 1210000 chips.
Why it matters to readers
An increase in the number of chips means that the scale of Colossus's 2 computing resources may increase; however, some of the quantities and timing described in the article remain planned or potential arrangements.
A AI computing cluster can be understood as computing infrastructure in which a large number of chips work together. In theory, the more chips there are, the greater the computing scale it can support.
Risks and unknowns
The plans for next week,November and December scheduled for year-end GB300 are not confirmed by the evidence.
The approximately 1210000 chips and approximately 120%increase are quantities estimated according to the plan, not quantities already deployed.
The report does not state whether the plans above were ultimately completed.
