June 20 (Reuters) - Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co (HPE) (HPE.N) on Tuesday said that it is rolling out a cloud computing service designed to power artificial intelligence systems similar to ChatGPT.
That shift toward AI is shaking up the cloud computing market because data centers must be built very differently to handle such work.
In a typical cloud computing data center, software is used to chop up a single physical server into many smaller "virtual" machines that can then be rented out to customers.
But data centers for artificial intelligence take an opposite approach.
Justin Hotard, executive vice president and general manager of HPE's high-performance computing and artificial intelligence unit, said the company will use its experience in supercomputers to offer a service specifically for what are called large language models, the technology behind services like ChatGPT.
