Report: Google and SpaceX in talks to put data centers into orbit

# Google and SpaceX Want to Move AI Computing to Space Google and SpaceX are discussing putting massive computer servers into orbit around Earth, betting that space could eventually become a cheaper place to run the AI systems that power everything from search to chatbots. Right now, this would cost far more than keeping those servers in regular data centers on the ground, but the companies believe that launching equipment into space could eventually solve problems like needing massive amounts of electricity and cooling systems. The idea is still in early talks, so don't expect your AI to run from orbit anytime soon.
Google and SpaceX are in talks to build data centers in orbit, pitching space as the future home for AI compute, even as costs today remain far higher than on the ground.
