Descriptions:
Bloomberg Technology’s April 9, 2026 live broadcast covers several breaking developments across AI infrastructure and model competition. The headline story: CoreWeave and Meta have signed an additional $21 billion computing agreement, extending CoreWeave’s total contracted revenue from Meta to approximately $35 billion through 2032. The deal is financed through a layered structure including $3 billion in convertible notes, $1.25 billion in credit facilities, and term loans backed by Meta’s cash flows — a structure Bloomberg analysts describe as a bullish signal from bond markets on AI growth trajectories.
Separately, Meta unveiled NewSpark, its first closed-source AI model — a significant strategic departure from the open-source Llama family. Bloomberg reporters note that NewSpark was trained using multiple third-party models including Alibaba’s Qwen, raising pointed questions about US-China AI competition and national security implications. Alex Wang, who leads Meta’s AI unit, placed Meta at approximately fourth among frontier model labs following the launch. Meta’s stock rose roughly 10% across two trading sessions on the combined news.
The broadcast also covers Anthropic’s insider share sale, which left some investors with smaller stakes than requested, and includes a segment on Infleqtion — a quantum technologies company deploying quantum sensors to the International Space Station for GPS-independent navigation and Earth surface sensing.
