Here are the key points from the keynote:
1. Nvidia announced several major new products and technologies:
- Blackwell — a new AI computing platform for training large language models and generative AI, with a new “MV Link Switch” chip to connect multiple GPUs. It provides a huge boost in performance and efficiency over the previous Hopper platform.
- Nvidia Inference Microservices (Nims) — Pre-optimized and packaged AI models/software that can run anywhere on Nvidia’s hardware. This allows easy deployment of AI capabilities.
- Omniverse expansions — Integrations and partnerships to bring Nvidia’s simulation/digital twin platform Omniverse into more industrial workflows like manufacturing, robotics, etc.
2. Nvidia laid out their vision for the future of computing and AI:
- An “AI Factory” era where datacenters are dedicated to generating AI content/models instead of retrieving pre-made content.
- Rise of “generative AI” that produces new content like text, images, etc tailored to the specific context/user.
- More robotic systems powered by large AI models, with digital twins used for testing.
- Assembling applications from pre-built AI models/services rather than coding from scratch.
3. They showcased advances across robotics, healthcare drug discovery, scientific computing and more powered by their AI platforms.
4. Major partnerships were announced with cloud providers, enterprise software companies, automakers and more to adopt Nvidia’s technologies.
The keynote presented Nvidia’s roadmap and vision for driving the generative AI revolution across industries using their hardware and software stack.
Here’s a summary of the video:
Generative AI is revolutionizing enterprises across industries by enhancing productivity and operations through knowledge-based co-pilots, accelerated content creation, multilingual virtual agents, optimized code generation, automated data analytics, and more. However, the constant evolution of AI creates challenges, such as developing enterprise-ready large language models and maintaining secure, stable AI software, preventing many AI projects from reaching production.
Nvidia AI Enterprise is an end-to-end software platform designed to bring generative AI within reach for every enterprise. It provides the fastest and most efficient runtime for generative AI foundation models with production-grade security, stability, and manageability. It streamlines the development of generative AI solutions across various industries and is available in the cloud, data centers, and at the edge, allowing organizations to develop once and run anywhere.
Nvidia AI Enterprise unlocks the capabilities of the Nvidia platform, enabling enterprises to automate processes, tap into real-time insights, and enhance workflow efficiency. Nvidia offers the API Catalog for rapid generative AI development from zero to AI in 5 minutes, Launchpad for guided hands-on lab experiences, and a 90-day evaluation software to access the full software stack and benefits for starting a proof of concept.
