Holy shit. Bloomberg just verified one of my biggest scoops - that Microsoft only has 2gw of operational capacity. I had it at 1.993GW in prep for the story that @aishadown.bsky.social and I did for the guardian. Vindication! www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
Brody Ford @BrodyFord
Lot of speculation out there about how many GPUs are actually deployed.
Today, Microsoft has about 2GW of Al-specific capacity live. around 17% of the total fleet.
Only about 2 gigawatts of the company's current 12-gigawatt capacity is centered on Al-specific chips, the people said. This is expected to grow to about a third of the 38 gigawatts Microsoft plans to have online in 2032, they said.

I’d wager that 75%+ of this revenue is OpenAI and Anthropic and their compute spend. Also even if it was $25bn in a quarter, that’s $5bn less than Microsoft spent in capex in q1 2026, or $70bn less than Anthropic raised this quarter, so no, I wouldn’t say ai is “paying off” lol
