Nvidia unveils next-gen AI chip platform Rubin, set for 2026 release

Nvidia Corp's CEO Jensen Huang on Monday said that Artificial Intelligence has ended the 'digital divide' across the world. Speaking at the&nbsp;Computex forum in Taipei, Huang said that AI has ushered in a new era of computing, making it possible for anyone to become a programmer by simply speaking to a computer.

“Every single computing era you could do different things that weren’t possible before, and artificial intelligence certainly qualifies. Everyone is a programmer now – you just have to say something to the computer," he told the audience in Taipei.&nbsp;

Nvidia has rapidly emerged as the world's most valuable listed semiconductor company, owing to its pivotal role as a leading supplier of chips and computing systems for AI. The company's chips power a wide range of AI applications, including the popular language model ChatGPT, and have garnered immense demand from various industries. Most notably,&nbsp;Nvidia's AI chips have enabled companies like Microsoft to enhance their search engines, such as Bing, with human-like chat features.

With the programming barrier significantly lowered, the ease of use and accessibility of AI technology has contributed to its exponential progress. Huang confidently stated that the AI revolution would touch every industry, enabling businesses and individuals to achieve previously thought impossible feats, Reuters reported.

At the Taipei event, Huang showcased the capabilities of AI by demonstrating a program that composed a short pop song lauding Nvidia with minimal instruction. This example exemplified the potential for AI to generate creative and engaging content, capturing the audience's attention worldwide.

During his speech, Huang unveiled a series of innovative applications, including a strategic partnership with WPP, the world's largest advertising group. The collaboration aims to leverage generative AI-enabled content for digital advertising, providing advertisers with advanced tools to create captivating campaigns.

While the demand for Nvidia's AI chips continues to surge, the company has faced challenges in meeting this growing appetite. The scarcity of graphics processing units (GPUs), integral to AI systems, has drawn comparisons to the difficulty of acquiring illicit drugs. Nvidia is proactively addressing these supply chain challenges and ensuring that the market's hunger for AI chips is adequately satisfied.

AI Magic: Nvidia’s CEO says ‘anyone can become a Programmer’

Riding high on the artificial intelligence boom, US chipmaker Nvidia Corp is on the verge of becoming the ninth company in history to reach a market value of $1 trillion.&nbsp;

Nvidia's stock hit a record high of nearly 26 percent on Thursday after its blowout forecast expected about $11 billion of sales between May and June 2023, which is well above market forecasts.

At one point on Thursday, the chipmaker's market worth increased by $199 billion to a record $955 billion, media reports said.&nbsp;

Meanwhile, traders betting against Nvidia suffered massive losses of $2.3 billion on the same day.&nbsp;

Nvidia's single-day market value increase of $163 billion is one of the largest in US history. In November 2022, Apple's stock rose $191 billion in a single day, while in February 2022, Amazon's stock rose by a little lower amount.

Thanks to Thursday's surge, Nvidia's stock is now up 161 percent this year on the promise that the company's chips will power the future of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Since November 4, Nvidia is already the most-traded stock by retail traders, breaking Tesla's long-standing streak.&nbsp;

Nvidia's market value is double that of Taiwan's TSMC, the second-largest chip manufacturer in the world. Only Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Amazon have higher market capitalizations in the United States.

Nvidia has become the darling of the Generative AI boom that started with the launch of OpenAI's ChatGPT in November last year.&nbsp;

Nvidia co-founder Jensen Huang's wealth surged roughly 23 percent by $6 billion to an approximate $34 billion on Thursday.&nbsp;

Huang's wealth has risen by 140 percent since the beginning of the year. If the stock surge continues, it will make him the biggest gainer among billionaires globally this year.

Huang, who is well known for his penchant for black leather jackets and a tattoo that mimics the Nvidia logo, co-founded the firm in 1993 and released the first Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in 1999.

US chipmaker Nvidia on the brink of crossing $1 trillion market value

Chip designer Nvidia Corp said on Wednesday that US&nbsp;officials told it to stop exporting two top computing chips for artificial intelligence work to China, a move that could cripple Chinese firms' ability to carry out advanced work like image recognition and hamper Nvidia's business in the country.

The announcement signals a major escalation of the US&nbsp;crackdown on China's technological capabilities as tensions bubble over the fate of Taiwan, where chips for Nvidia and almost every other major chip firm are manufactured.

Nvidia shares fell 6.6 per cent&nbsp;hours later. The company said the ban, which affects its A100 and H100 chips designed to speed up machine learning tasks, could interfere with completion of developing the H100, the flagship chip it announced this year.

Shares of rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc fell 3.7 per cent. An AMD spokesman told Reuters it had received new license requirements that will stop its MI250 artificial intelligence chips from being exported to China but it believes its MI100 chips will not be affected. AMD said it does not believe the new rules will have a material impact on its business.

Nvidia said US&nbsp;officials told it the new rule "will address the risk that products may be used in, or diverted to, a 'military end use' or 'military end user' in China".

The US&nbsp;Department of Commerce would not say what new criteria it has laid out for AI chips that can no longer be shipped to China but said it is reviewing its China-related policies and practices to "keep advanced technologies out of the wrong hands".

"While we are not in a position to outline specific policy changes at this time, we are taking a comprehensive approach to implement additional actions necessary related to technologies, end-uses, and end-users to protect US&nbsp;national security and foreign policy interests," a spokesperson told Reuters.

The Chinese foreign ministry responded on Thursday by accusing the United States of attempting to impose a "tech blockade" on China, while its commerce ministry said such actions would undermine the stability of global supply chains.

"The US&nbsp;continues to abuse export control measures to restrict exports of semiconductor-related items to China, which China firmly opposes," commerce ministry spokesperson Shu Jieting said at a news conference.

This is not the first time the US&nbsp;has moved to choke off Chinese firms' supply of chips. In 2020, former president Donald Trump's administration banned suppliers from selling chips made using US&nbsp;technology to tech giant Huawei without a special license.

Without American chips from companies like Nvidia and AMD, Chinese organizations will be unable to cost-effectively carry out the kind of advanced computing used for image and speech recognition, among many other tasks.

Image recognition and natural language processing are common in consumer applications like smartphones that can answer queries and tag photos. They also have military uses such as scouring satellite imagery for weapons or bases and filtering digital communications for intelligence-gathering purposes.

Nvidia said it had booked $400 million in sales of the affected chips this quarter to China that could be lost if firms decide not to buy alternative Nvidia products. It said it plans to apply for exemptions to the rule.

Stacy Rasgon, a financial analyst with Bernstein, said the disclosure signaled that about 10% of Nvidia's data center sales were coming from China and that the hit to sales was likely "manageable" for Nvidia.

“It’s not (investment) thesis changing, but it’s not a good look,” Rasgon said. “What happens on both sides now is the question.”

Nvidia last week forecast a sharp drop in revenue for the current quarter on the back of a weaker gaming industry. It said it expected third-quarter sales to fall 17 per cent&nbsp;from the same period last year.
