Pentagon in talks to lend ~$5B to AI cloud startup Fluidstack via Office of Strategic Capital
The Pentagon is reportedly in talks to lend roughly $5 billion to AI cloud computing startup Fluidstack through its Office of Strategic Capital, which would be the office's largest loan to date and would support the U.S. data-center supply chain and manufacturing capacity. Fluidstack is described as Google-backed, and much of its demand reportedly comes from its partnership relationships.

The Pentagon may be about to fund the AI buildout directly with a reported $5B loan to $GOOGL backed Fluidstack.
