We Finished 2025 With 1.5 Gigawatts. Next Year It Doubles | Ilya Burkov, Nebius

Committed compute, 200-billion-parameter models, and what vertical alignment means in healthcare AI infrastructure. Book Ian for your event → iankhan.com | booking@iankhan.com SUMMARY Ilya Burkov of Nebius describes an infrastructure provider vertically aligned to healthcare and life sciences rather than generic. He covers customers migrating from Hopper to Blackwell GPUs, the scale of models now being trained, and the committed power capacity behind it. KEY FINDINGS • Vertically aligned infrastructure across biopharma and digital biology • Models at 200 billion parameters and beyond • Customers migrating from Hopper to Blackwell GPUs • Teams starting on a couple of nodes and jumping to Blackwells within six months • Finishing 2025 with 1.5 gigawatts of power • Doubling to 3 gigawatts entering 2027 • That 3 gigawatts being committed compute rather than a projection NOTABLE QUOTES "We finished 2025 with 1.5 gigawatts of power. We're gonna finish this year and begin 2027 with double that, 3 gigawatts." — Ilya Burkov GUEST Ilya Burkov, Nebius FULL TRANSCRIPT iankhan.com/futurist/ilya-burkov-nebius-healthcare-compute Recorded at HLTH Europe 2026, Amsterdam for The Futurist. ──────────────────── ABOUT IAN KHAN — HEALTHCARE AI KEYNOTE SPEAKER Most AI keynotes end with a better understanding.
