Oracle Issues Force Majeure Notice for New Mexico Stargate Data Center

Oracle Corporation sent a force majeure notice to the developer of Project Jupiter, a Stargate data center campus in New Mexico, according to TechCrunch. The notice could allow Oracle to delay payments if the facility misses its 2028 opening target, but the company is not seeking to exit as its main tenant.

Oracle said Project Jupiter remains on schedule. Blue Owl Capital, whose unit received the notice, said it does not change the financial commitments to the multiyear project.

The 2.45 gigawatt campus plans to use gas powered fuel cells from Bloom Energy. A pipeline intended to supply gas has been delayed until February 1, 2027, after permit denials, while an air quality permit for the fuel cell system remains pending.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
