Nvidia expands beyond chips with new generative AI breakthroughs
The company has unveiled significant advancements in generative AI.
At SIGGRAPH, a major computer graphics conference, Nvidia presented new real-world applications of generative AI. Chief executive officer Jensen Huang highlighted the company’s role in AI development, emphasising their Nvidia Inference Microservices (NIM) platform. Nvidia has always prioritised advanced computing through a software-led approach.
Recent announcements showcased improvements in generative AI and 3D content generation. AI services and models are now available to accelerate humanoid robot development. Researchers can use devices like the Apple Vision Pro to teach robots various tasks. Collaborations with Getty Images and Shutterstock aim to improve the accuracy of AI-generated images matching text prompts.
Engineers now benefit from advancements in industrial design, visualisation, and advertising tools. A demo video displayed lifelike 3D worlds generated from simple text prompts. Coca-Cola and marketing agency WPP are among the early adopters of Nvidia’s generative AI art tools.
The importance of these developments extends beyond product outputs. Nvidia integrates AI into their own processes, aiding software debugging and chip design. The impact on the market has been substantial, contributing significantly to the S&P 500’s market capitalisation gains. The company’s efforts continue to shape the future of AI in various industries.
