The figure signals Huang’s confidence that Nvidia can remain the biggest player in the…

Nvidia’s $4T valuation isn’t just historic, it’s comically massive.

It’s now worth more than Meta and Alphabet combined.

More than Microsoft. More than Apple and Amazon together.

At this point, Nvidia could probably buy Netflix, McDonald’s, Coca-Cola, and still have money left to build its own theme park.

Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar recently engaged in a captivating conversation that linked two seemingly unrelated fields—cinema and artificial intelligence—while also exploring a more personal topic: martial arts. Kumar met Jensen Huang, the CEO of NVIDIA, during Huang’s visit to India in preparation for the NVIDIA AI Summit in Mumbai.

Recognized for his action-driven roles and commitment to fitness, Kumar shared a photo of this remarkable encounter on social media. In the picture, both Kumar and Huang are seen in playful martial arts stances. Kumar is clad in a sleek black suit, while Huang dons his signature black leather jacket.

Accompanying the image, Kumar tweeted, “Can you believe I met the world’s foremost expert on Artificial Intelligence and ended up discussing martial arts?! What an amazing individual you are, Mr. Jensen Huang. Now I see why NVIDIA is such a powerhouse in the industry.”

The tweet quickly went viral, capturing the attention of not only Bollywood enthusiasts but also tech fans excited about the intersections of entertainment and technology. Jensen Huang, often hailed as a visionary for his contributions to the AI landscape, seemed to bond well with the Bollywood star, likely finding shared values in discipline and focus—qualities vital to both martial arts and cutting-edge technological innovation.

Huang is visiting India for the upcoming NVIDIA AI Summit in Mumbai, an event aimed at showcasing the latest developments in AI and GPU technology. His meeting with Kumar adds a personal touch to an otherwise technology-centric itinerary, emphasizing the growing overlap between technology and popular culture in our daily lives.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s understanding of technology has captivated major tech leaders, including NVIDIA’s renowned CEO, Jensen Huang.

Huang expressed that Modi’s vision for a digital India and his familiarity with emerging technologies like AI have positioned the country prominently on the global tech stage. He highlighted how government initiatives such as Digital India, Startup India, and Make in India have significantly contributed to the advancement of India’s tech landscape.

At Friday’s NVIDIA AI Summit in Mumbai, Huang recalled his first meeting with Prime Minister Modi six years prior, expressing surprise when Modi asked him to address his Cabinet on artificial intelligence.

“It was truly the first time any government leader, any national leader, asked me to address his Cabinet on this specific topic. This was long before artificial intelligence was on anyone’s radar,” Huang noted.

This encounter was not the first instance of Modi leaving Huang impressed.

After a crucial roundtable discussion between the prime minister and prominent technology CEOs, Huang praised Modi’s enthusiasm for emerging technologies, especially AI. As a leader in AI hardware and software, Huang commended Modi’s vision for integrating AI into India’s future growth.

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia Corp., addressed the growing customer frustration and heightened tensions stemming from the high demand for the company's products at a Goldman Sachs technology conference in San Francisco. Huang acknowledged the intense competition for Nvidia’s limited supplies, stating, "The demand is extremely high, and everyone wants to be first and secure the most. We probably have more frustrated customers now, which is only natural. It’s a tense environment, but we’re doing our best to manage it."

Huang highlighted that Nvidia’s latest chip generation, known as Blackwell, is experiencing significant demand. The company outsources the manufacturing of its physical hardware, and Huang noted that its vendors are working hard to catch up with the demand.

Nvidia’s chips are vital for data centers involved in developing and running artificial intelligence models. This surge in demand for AI services has led to a substantial increase in both sales and stock prices. Nvidia’s stock price has more than doubled this year, following a 239% rise in 2023. On Wednesday, the stock saw its largest single-day increase in six weeks, rising by 8.1% to $116.91 in New York.

Despite this growth, Nvidia relies heavily on a small number of customers, such as Microsoft Corp. and Meta Platforms Inc., for a significant portion of its revenue. Huang was asked about the return on investment for companies investing heavily in AI, a topic of concern amid the industry's AI boom. He responded by emphasizing the necessity of “accelerated computing,” noting that Nvidia’s technology not only speeds up traditional data processing tasks but also handles AI workloads that older technologies cannot manage.

Huang also discussed Nvidia’s reliance on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) for producing its most critical chips. He praised TSMC for its exceptional performance but acknowledged the geopolitical risks associated with TSMC’s location. China’s claims over Taiwan could potentially disrupt Nvidia’s supply chain. Huang reassured that while Nvidia could shift orders to other suppliers if necessary, such a transition might lead to a decline in chip quality.

“TSMC’s agility and ability to respond to our needs is truly remarkable,” Huang stated. “We depend on them due to their exceptional performance, but, if necessary, we can always switch to other suppliers.”

"Don't Learn to Code, But Study This Instead..." says NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang

I think a lot of people got it wrong what Jensen Huang, Co-Founder and CEO of NVIDIA was recently saying at the @WorldGovSummit . It is easy to grab a "hot" statement without considering the full context and the more important message about what we as humanity should focus more in the age of AI.

Çıkışıyla birlikte dünyanın en süper bilgisayarları listesinin ilk sırasına yerleşecek olan Çin menşeli Tianhe-1A'nın içi tıkabasa Nvidia Tesla GPU'ları ile dolu :)

HPC 2010 etkinliği dahilinde tanıtımı yapılan yukarıda gördüğümüz bu süper bilgisayar tam 2.507 petaflops'luk işlem gücüne sahip. (1 petaflop= saniyede 1 katrilyon işlem) Bu güce erişmesi için de bünyesinde 14,336 tane Intel Xeon tabanlı mikro-işlemci ve 7,168 tane de Nvidia'nın Fermi tabanlı Tesla M2050 GPGPU'suna yer verilmiş. Yani CPU ve GPU'lar arasında 2:1'lik orantılama mevcut.  Ve en önemli kısmı ise bu canavarın çalışması için sadece 4.04 megawatt'a ihtiyaç duyması. Sadece dememizin sebebini ise Nvidia CEO'su Jen-Hsun Huang'ın ağzından dile getirelim: Eğer 2.507 petaflops'luk işlem gücüne sahip bir süper bilgisayar bu güce sadece mikro-işlemciler kullanılarak ulaşsaydı, güç tüketimi 12 megawatt'ı geçecekti. Fakat Tesla sayesinde bu gereksinim 3 kat daha aşağıya çekildi. GPU'lar sayesinde yüksek performanslı hesaplamalar artık yeniden tanımlanıyor.

Çin'in Tianjin eyaletinde bulunan Ulusal Süper Bilgisayar Merkezi'nde yerleşik Tianhe-1A, diğer türdeşlerinde olduğu gibi geniş ölçekli bilimsel hesaplamaların kotarılması yolunda açık geçiş sistemi formunda kullanılacak.

Dipnot : CPU'ları bir kenara bırakıp sadece cihazda yer alan GPU'ların liste fiyatından hesapladığımızda karşımıza 18 milyon dolar gibi bir meblağ çıkıyor :)
