Reflection AI 与 Nebius 签署 10 亿美元算力协议

美国开源模型初创公司 Reflection AI 与欧洲 AI 基础设施公司 Nebius 签署了一项价值 10 亿美元的算力协议。

Nebius（原 Yandex 国际部门）将向 Reflection 提供英伟达最新芯片。

此前数周，Reflection 刚与 SpaceX 达成类似算力合作。

该公司由两位前 Google DeepMind 研究员于 2024 年创立，目前估值 80 亿美元，已从英伟达、红杉资本等投资者处筹集近 26 亿美元。

该交易反映了 AI 公司为训练和部署模型而竞相获取算力的行业趋势。

Reflection AI, a U.S. startup vying to develop open models：https://techcrunch.com/2025/10/09/reflection-raises-2b-to-be-americas-open-frontier-ai-lab-challenging-deepseek/, has signed a $1 billion compute deal with European AI infrastructure company, Nebius.

Nebius：https://techcrunch.com/2024/11/24/the-curious-case-of-nebius-the-publicly-traded-ai-infrastructure-startup/, formerly the international arm of Russian tech giant Yandex, will provide Reflection access to Nvidia’s latest chips. The deal comes just a few weeks after the startup signed a similar deal to access SpaceX’：https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/22/spacex-inks-compute-deal-with-reflection-ai-an-open-source-ai-lab/s computing resources, and mirrors several partnerships by AI firms as they race to secure compute for training and deploying their models.

Along with its increasingly capable Chinese counterparts, Reflection is one of several open-weight AI model developers that have received ample attention lately as debate rages over the value of top-shelf, closed-source AI models — especially with data retention concerns：https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/13/satya-nadella-has-issued-a-shocking-warning-to-companies-using-ai/ surging up, as well as government intervention.

Just last month, the Trump administration pressured Anthropic：https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/30/trump-drops-restrictions-on-anthropics-mythos-and-fable-models/ and OpenAI：https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/26/openai-limits-gpt-5-6-rollout-after-government-request-says-restrictions-shouldnt-be-the-norm/ to restrict their most powerful new models, raising concerns that access to AI models could be taken away overnight：https://techcrunch.com/2026/06/17/world-leaders-want-american-ai-they-just-dont-want-america-to-be-able-to-turn-it-off/. That, plus the release of more capable open models from China, has led to an increase in mainstream interest in open source AI.

Reflection, currently valued at $8 billion, was founded in 2024 by two former Google DeepMind researchers. It has already raised close to $2.6 billion in funding from backers including Nvidia, Sequoia Capital, and Lightspeed Venture Partners.

Shortly after securing a $2 billion investment from Nvidia：https://nebius.com/newsroom/nvidia-and-nebius-partner-to-scale-full-stack-ai-cloud, Nebius signed a five-year infrastructure deal with Meta：https://nebius.com/newsroom/nebius-signs-new-ai-infrastructure-agreement-with-meta worth up to $27 billion. Last year, Nebius signed a multi-year deal with Microsoft worth up to $19.4 billion.
