How Nvidia Grew From Gaming To A.I. Giant, Now Powering ChatGPT

Published

on



Thirty years ago, Taiwan immigrant Jensen Huang founded Nvidia with the dream of revolutionizing PCs and gaming with 3D graphics. In 1999, after laying off the majority of workers and nearly going bankrupt, the company succeeded when it launched what it claims as the world’s first Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). Then Jensen bet the company on something entirely different: AI. Now, that bet is paying off in a big way as Nvidia’s A100 chips quickly become the coveted training engines for ChatGPT and other generative AI. But as the chip shortage eases, other chip giants like Intel are struggling. And with all it’s chips made by TSMC in Taiwan, Nvidia remains vulnerable to mounting U.S.-China trade tensions. We went to Nvidia’s Silicon Valley, California, headquarters to talk with Huang and get a behind-the scenes-look at the chips powering gaming and the AI boom.

    They still ship a100 and their latest to China. They just rename the product or change the firm after they ship the product. 25% of Billions earned will never fall off the quarterly reports.

    I can imagine that the U.S really sweetened the deal for TSMC's factories in AZ. TSMC is in a great position to ask for support in any way it wants considering that the most sensible way to continue the status quo is to have the same company supplying the same companies.

    U.S is looking to the same thing with lithium mining domestically. It's no longer an existential problem for tech companies; its an unmitigated risk to national security.

    And currently there are headlines as Meta and Microsoft signaling partnership with AMD. Microsoft made it's own as well.

    future is going to be wild ladies and gentlemen. Ride the wave or get crushed by it.

    More quarters and outlooks from big tech names, powered by Nvidia, as well as this trader FOMO, may lead to renewed buying strength in markets in October. I want to invest more than $300k, but not sure on how to mitigate risk

  8. @ExcaliburCanon-eh3lu

    Nvidia should take the risk and build there own fAB, it's risky but worth it is successful

    ~ I believe we are meant to be like Jesus in our hearts and not in our flesh. But be careful of AI, for it is just our flesh and that is it. It knows only things of the flesh (our fleshly desires) and cannot comprehend things of the spirit such as peace of heart (which comes from obeying God's Word). Whereas we are a spirit and we have a soul but live in the body (in the flesh). When you go to bed it is your flesh that sleeps but your spirit never sleeps (otherwise you have died physically) that is why you have dreams. More so, true love that endures and last is a thing of the heart (when I say 'heart', I mean 'spirit'). But fake love, pretentious love, love with expectations, love for classic reasons, love for material reasons and love for selfish reasons that is a thing of our flesh. In the beginning God said let us make man in our own image, according to our likeness. Take note, God is Spirit and God is Love. As Love He is the source of it. We also know that God is Omnipotent, for He creates out of nothing and He has no beginning and has no end. That means, our love is but a shadow of God's Love. True love looks around to see who is in need of your help, your smile, your possessions, your money, your strength, your quality time. Love forgives and forgets. Love wants for others what it wants for itself. Take note, love works in conjunction with other spiritual forces such as faith and patience. We should let the Word of God be the standard of our lives not AI. If not, God will let us face AI on our own and it will cast the truth down to the ground, it will be the cause of so much destruction like never seen before, it will deceive many and take many captive in order to enslave them into worshipping it and abiding in lawlessness. We can only destroy ourselves but with God all things are possible. God knows us better because He is our Creater and He knows our beginning and our end. Our prove text is taken from the book of John 5:31-44, 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12, Daniel 7-9, Revelation 13-15, Matthew 24-25 and Luke 21. Let us watch and pray… God bless you as you share this message to others.

    AI Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

    The 1st sentence is not true. There are no hundreds of millions of games playing on an RTX 4080. They do not even produce that many RTX 4080 GPUs. The reality is that 80% of Nvidia GPUs are now used as processors for Cryptocurrency. The PC gaming industry is not what it used to be.

How The U.S Became So Dependent On Taylor Farms

Published

on

By



Taylor Farms has been linked to cyclosporiasis and salmonella outbreaks this summer. After years of consolidation, experts say the company’s ability to control every stage of the supply chain has made it indispensable to grocers and restaurant chains, while raising the stakes for consumers when things go wrong. CNBC food and wellness reporter Brandon Gomez explains how the U.S. became so reliant on Taylor Farms.
