OpenAI and Amazon have signed a $38bn (£28.9 billion) deal that enables the ChatGPT maker to run its artificial intelligence systems on Amazon’s data centres in the US.

OpenAI will be able to power its AI tools using “hundreds of thousands” of Nvidia’s specialised AI chips through Amazon Web Services as part of the deal announced on Monday.
