Jensen Huang pointed out that CPU progress has slowed down, GPU accelerated computing is the future, and generative AI is a killer application. Nvidia believes there is a clear shift in the architecture of computers that could lead to more growth. Data center components could even become a trillion-dollar market.
Jensen Huang explained that traditionally the most important CPU for computers or servers, the major players in this market include Intel and AMD. but with the emergence of AI applications that require a lot of computing power, GPUs will take the lead, and NVIDIA dominates the current global AI GPU market.
Jensen Huang said that in the past, the data center mainly relied on the CPU to complete file retrieval, but in the future, it will become generative data. This also means that the way to retrieve all the data will change to generate most of the data by AI, so Jen-Hsun Huang asserted that future data centers and supercomputers do not need millions of CPU clusters, only a small number of CPUs can cope, but these CPUs will be integrated with millions of GPUs.
Google’s recently released A3 supercomputer is equipped with 8 Nvidia H100 GPUs, but only equipped with 1 Intel Xeon processor. Jen-Hsun Huang said that Nvidia’s software is not easy to replicate, and must design all the software, all the software libraries and algorithms, integrate them into the architecture and optimize them, and optimize them for the architecture, while generative AI will change the existing computer architecture.
