Nvidia supreme leader Jensen Huang unveiled a raft of new AI-related products and claimed the world was at a tipping point for this sort of thing.
The US outfit, which has been making a fortune out of the artificial intelligence boom, saw its value surge to nearly $1 trillion last week, after the company announced better-than-expected results.
Nvidia chips are a central ingredient to the generative AI revolution, capable of delivering the computing heft needed to churn out complex content in just seconds from data centres worldwide.
Huang’s two-hour presentation introduced new products — including an AI supercomputer platform called DGX GH200, which he said is now “in full production”.
“We’re so excited that Google Cloud, Meta and Microsoft will be the first companies in the world to have access,” he added.
“They will be doing be doing exploratory research on the pioneering front, the boundaries of artificial intelligence, with us.”
The new supercomputer will — in theory — help the tech industry as it seeks to create more AI-related products, which require more complex computing tasks.
