Jeff Bezos has thrown his weight behind a $2.6 billion British artificial intelligence start-up in Cambridge that is working with Nvidia and Meta to tackle a looming shortage of key materials for computer chips, according to company announcements on 20 July.
The Amazon founder, through his investment firm Bezos Expeditions, has backed CuspAI, whose software is being pitched as a way to help chipmakers find alternatives to critical elements such as gallium, most of which is currently refined in China.
