Company boss Jensen Huang presented the system called Blackwell at the GTC internal developer conference in San Jose on Monday. Nvidia sees Blackwell as “powering a new industrial revolution” through AI. The system is four times more powerful than the current generation of Grace Hopper when it comes to training artificial intelligence.
Nvidia’s computing systems dominate AI training in data centers. The group also wants to expand its role in generating content using artificial intelligence. The ‘Blackwell’ system is 30 times better than ‘Hopper’, Huang pointed out. Nvidia also has new software for this that can also be used via interfaces via the cloud.
Create new content and don’t pull it
Huang was confident that in the future, most content will not be prefabricated from storage, but AI software will freshly generate it based on the current situation. Nvidia has developed the computing system for this future.
With Grace Hopper, for example, the chatbot ChatGPT could have been trained in three months with 8,000 Nvidia chips and a power consumption of 15 megawatts, Huang said. With Blackwell you can do this in the same time with 2000 chips and 4 megawatts of electricity.
Simulate the entire company
The ‘AI superchip’ is named after the American mathematician David Blackwell. Nvidia also wants to promote the use of so-called ‘digital twins’, where companies can simulate their entire business operations on the computer. In the future, before you build something in the real world, you will first simulate it digitally, Huang emphasizes.
Nvidia also relies on robots. “Everything that moves will be robotic,” the company boss said. The goal is for robots to learn by simply observing people. “The ChatGPT moment for robotics may be just around the corner,” says Huang. (sda/dpa)
