This collaboration provides PhysicsX with access to CoreWeave’s powerful computing capabilities to develop its Large Physics Models — artificial intelligence systems trained on physics simulation data combined with industrial datasets. These models help accelerate engineering workflows in industries including aerospace, automotive manufacturing, and semiconductor production.
According to PhysicsX CEO Jacomo Corbo, the alliance delivers “the computational backbone required to scale physics AI” for complex industrial applications. CoreWeave’s SVP Max Hjelm emphasized that their infrastructure is specifically designed to support the intensive computational requirements these models demand.
Shares jumped 8.61% on the announcement, though they continue trading far below the 52-week peak of $187.00. Wednesday’s opening price was $74.92.

Securities Litigation Intensifies
CoreWeave confronts mounting legal challenges from multiple securities class action lawsuits.

Additional law firms — Rosen, Hagens Berman, and Bragar Eagel & Squire among them — are recruiting lead plaintiffs before the March 13 deadline.
The legal actions reference CoreWeave’s fourth-quarter loss approaching $452 million along with allegedly disappointing guidance and infrastructure setbacks that plaintiffs claim caused a 16% stock decline.
The company disclosed Q4 earnings per share of -$0.89, undershooting analyst consensus of -$0.61. Revenue totaled $1.57 billion, representing a 110.4% increase year-over-year, though losses exceeded projections.
