Streaming Platform Rumble Betting on AI With Northern Data Deal

If you ask Rumble Inc.’s chief executive officer, the video service’s $767 million acquisition of Northern Data AG will put it alongside Big Tech rivals like Amazon Inc. and Alphabet Inc. in the race to power artificial intelligence.

The Northern Data transaction “launches us directly into the fastest-growing market in technology: AI infrastructure,” Chris Pavlovski told analysts on Rumble’s earnings call on Monday.
