Facing relentless demand for AI processing power, Google is reportedly exploring the ultimate high ground: space. Project Suncatcher, as it’s dubbed, envisions deploying AI data centers equipped with Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) beyond Earth’s atmosphere. A leaked Reddit post suggests an intriguing approach: pre-irradiating the TPUs to better withstand the rigors of the space environment. While still speculative, the project underscores the escalating need for innovative solutions to fuel the AI revolution.
