According to the CEO of the AI hardware company, the next industrial revolution has already begun. The announcement was made at a crowded stadium in Taipei on Sunday by Nvidia, as they revealed new products and plans to drive advancements in artificial intelligence.

Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, is currently attending Computex, Taiwan’s largest technology exhibition, alongside CEOs from major semiconductor companies such as AMD, Intel, and Qualcomm. The focus of the event is on establishing AI as a mainstream technology in the industry.

Having been born in Taiwan, Huang is a prominent figure on the island, and his presence has generated significant interest from the media and the public. Nvidia is recognized as the leader in specialized chips and hardware essential for the development and operation of cutting-edge AI systems.

During his address at the National Taiwan University’s Sports Center, Huang mentioned the collaboration between companies and countries with Nvidia to revamp their traditional data centers into high-speed computing facilities, focusing on creating an AI factory for the mass production of artificial intelligence.

He introduced the Nvidia ACE generation AI, which can generate lifelike human avatars for industries like customer support. Several top technology companies, including Foxconn and Siemens, are leveraging Nvidia’s platform to develop AI-driven autonomous robots.

Nvidia recently unveiled its Blackwell platform, and Huang disclosed plans to launch an “Ultra” version in 2025. He also provided a glimpse of their upcoming graphics processing unit architecture, codenamed Rubin. Huang emphasized Nvidia’s commitment to accelerating the release of new GPU products annually.

In his forward-looking speech, Huang predicted that generative AI would play a significant role in almost every interaction with the internet or computers in the future. He concluded by praising Taiwan’s advanced semiconductor industry, which plays a crucial role in manufacturing essential components for various technologies.

Keynote addresses at Computex are also expected from AMD’s Lisa Su and Qualcomm’s Cristiano Amon, outlining their companies’ plans in AI. Other speakers include Intel’s CEO Pat Gelsinger and Arm’s president Rene Haas, highlighting the significance of AI-accelerated technologies.

Taiwanese manufacturers are pivotal to technology companies’ AI strategies as they produce advanced semiconductors required for powerful AI applications. Foxconn, known for electronics production, has shifted towards AI hardware, with their CEO projecting substantial growth in the AI server market.

Despite Taiwan’s crucial role in the global supply chain, there are concerns over China’s territorial claims and potential use of force. Tensions between Beijing and Taipei have escalated, with China conducting military exercises near Taiwan, including simulated blockades.
