Israel recently took a major step forward in its national AI strategy, opening the resource allocation track for our new national AI supercomputer. While the scale of such a system is impressive in itself, I believe the real innovation lies in how access is being framed and managed.
The compute power is not simply being sold as a commercial cloud service. Instead, it's being offered through a structured, subsidized model that currently allocates approximately 70% of the resources to the high-tech industry and 30% to academia. This is a deliberate, strategic choice.
By doing this, we are positioning large-scale compute as shared national infrastructure. It’s a platform built on public funding and private execution, designed to support our entire ecosystem in research, development, and long-term capability building. It creates a foundation that everyone can build upon.
This is how an ambitious vision for an 'AI Nation' becomes reality. We are turning strategy into concrete infrastructure, providing the tools needed to push Israeli AI forward and solidify our place as a global leader.
