Meta Platforms to Charge Advertisers New Fees in Europe to Cover Digital Taxes

Meta (NASDAQ:META) AI spending report triggers $137 billion swing in stock value

Meta Platforms shares rallied Wednesday after a report said the Facebook owner could start renting out extra AI computing power.

Reuters, via Bloomberg, said Meta is working on a cloud business that might sell access to AI models on its servers and could also offer raw compute capacity for sale. The swing in the market forced a shift in the numbers. Meta was last quoted at $616.64, up $53.35, or 9.5%, from its previous finish at $563.29. That move puts about $136.8 billion more on Meta’s market cap, nearly matching the $135 billion middle of its $125

Report: Nvidia, Microsoft and Amazon weigh up to $60 billion OpenAI investment

Nvidia, Microsoft and Amazon are in talks to invest up to $60 billion in OpenAI, The Information reported on Wednesday, in what could become one of the largest cash infusions yet into the ChatGPT maker.
