Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison has overtaken Elon Musk to become the richest person in the world, driven by Oracle’s rapid growth in artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing. Once considered behind major tech rivals, Oracle has gained a strong edge through Ellison’s bold strategy, including securing a massive supply of Nvidia GPUs — the key chips powering AI development. This move has positioned Oracle as a major competitor against giants like Amazon, Microsoft, and Google, marking a turning point in the global tech and wealth landscape.
