“The Success of GPUs Seems To Be Unstoppable” — DataCenter Insider

Two forces are driving the future of computing. First, the combination of deep learning, big data, and GPU computing has ignited the AI revolution. Second, Moore’s law has ended. Transistors continue to grow by 50% per year, but CPU performance only grows by 10%. Built on the CUDA architecture, NVIDIA GPU computing has given the industry a path forward just in time for AI. The number of GPU developers has grown 15X in the last five years to more than 645,000.

“NVIDIA Signs Massive Deal

with China’s Kingpins”—Seeking Alpha

NVIDIA Tesla V100, a 120 TeraFLOPS processor created to drive the next wave of AI, was adopted by Alibaba, Baidu, and Tencent for their datacenters and cloud service infrastructures. Researchers and startups can now rent the most advanced AI infrastructure in the cloud and avoid the complexities and expense of building a supercomputer. In addition, Huawei, Inspur, and Lenovo are using the NVIDIA HGX reference architecture to offer Volta-based servers for enterprises requiring a dedicated AI supercomputer.

“NVIDIA GPU Cloud Democratizes AI for Developers on AWS”—TechRepublic

NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) simplifies AI development for a rapidly growing base of users. NGC manages a catalog of integrated and optimized deep learning framework containers, and can run on any computing environment, from PCs to datacenters or in the cloud. We announced availability of NGC on Amazon Web Services, which also launched the first cloud instances powered by Tesla V100.

In Taiwan, we announced an extensive partnership with the country’s Ministry of Science and Technology centered on building the country’s first AI-focused supercomputer at the National Center for High-Performance Computing. Based on the NVIDIA DGX computing platform, it aims to reach 4 petaflops of performance — placing it among the world’s top 25 fastest supercomputers. The new partnership will also include professional training, startup development, and investments in the country’s “AI Edge” semiconductor competitiveness initiative.

“Inferencing Is a Huge Market with Infinite Potential.

With TensorRT 3 NVIDIA Is Ahead of the Game.”—AI Era

AI will infuse intelligence into 20 million cloud servers, hundreds of millions of autonomous machines, and trillions of IoT devices. But AI inferencing platforms must be programmable to run the increasingly diverse, and more complex, AI networks. We announced TensorRT 3, the world’s first programmable inference accelerator, which sharply boosts the performance and slashes the cost of inferencing, from the cloud to edge devices. TensorRT supports all frameworks and determines the optimal strategy for each target GPU.

“NVIDIA Tech Radically Improves

AI Inferencing Efficiency”—Tom’s Hardware

The performance of TensorRT is groundbreaking. TensorRT 3 on Volta speeds up image classification 40X over the fastest CPU, and 140X for language translation. With such performance, just one 8-GPU server can replace 160 dual-CPU servers. More than 1,200 companies have already begun using NVIDIA's inference platform, including leading Chinese AI companies Alibaba, Baidu, iFLYTEK, JD.com, and WeChat.

“NVIDIA Has Now Become the Leader in Autonomous-Driving Technology”—MarketWatch

Transportation is the fabric of society. Autonomous vehicles will change it forever. To help the industry adopt AVs, NVIDIA created the DRIVE platform. Based on a powerful AI car computer and ASIL-D operating system, the open platform brings together algorithms, tools, and a suite of self-driving car applications.

Ride-hailing services have seen exponential growth in recent years. Now, providers are looking to move quickly toward completely driverless robotaxis — fully-autonomous, Level 5 vehicles that rely on redundant sets of sensors like LIDAR and 360-degree surround cameras with the precision to keep riders safe. Expected to be the first Level 5 vehicles on city streets, robotaxis will demand a high-performance mobile computer that can process real-time data streams and maintain completely fail-safe operation.

Level 2 Level 5

“NVIDIA gets it. And their Drive PX

Pegasus will get us to Level 5.”—EE Times

“NVIDIA’s DRIVE PX Pegasus Is a

Royal Flush for Self-Driving Cars” —Seeking Alpha

NVIDIA DRIVE PX “Pegasus” is the world’s first AI computer designed to drive fully autonomous robotaxis. Delivering more than 320 trillion operations per second, Pegasus is a supercomputing datacenter in your trunk, and will help make possible a new class of vehicle without steering wheels, pedals, or mirrors.

“NVIDIA Jensen Huang: Autonomous Machine Era Is Coming” —DOIT

Self-driving cars are just one exciting area of autonomous machines. It will soon be possible to create many other classes of machines that can perceive their surroundings, understand their situation, and reason about what to do next. Created to power the new era of autonomous machines, the NVIDIA Jetson platform is a pocket-sized AI supercomputer complemented by the JetPack SDK and DIGITS deep learning development environment. The NVIDIA Isaac robot simulator allows developers to train robots in highly realistic, physics-based virtual environments and then transfer that knowledge to real-world units.

“JD X Taps NVIDIA for Drone Deliveries, Rescue and Agricultural Use”—TechCrunch

Robotics will revolutionize manufacturing, logistics, and delivery. JD.com, one of the world’s largest retailers and operators of logistics, has adopted the NVIDIA Jetson platform for autonomous machines.

One billion smart cameras will be deployed by 2020 to make our cities smarter and safer. But it will be impossible to manually monitor them. Building the AI City is a massive inference challenge. NVIDIA Metropolis is an edge-to-cloud platform that brings the power of AI to smart city applications, from improving traffic to enhancing law enforcement. Hikvision, the world’s leading intelligent video solutions company, adopted the NVIDIA platform from end to end. Alibaba, Dahua, and Huawei have also created AI solutions on NVIDIA.
