NVIDIA GPUs with Confidential Computing are now used for confidential inference in Apple’s Private Cloud Compute (PCC), as it expands beyond Apple’s data centers to Google Cloud.  Unveiled during Apple’s annual WWDC gathering for developers from around the globe, NVIDIA GPUs will support server-side inference for Apple Foundation Models, custom-built by Apple and Google, leveraging […]

Tracking how fast glaciers are shrinking is crucial for measuring the pace of climate change and projecting future sea level rises. This is normally a painstaking manual job, but a new approach that enables AI to analyze satellite images of glaciers anywhere in the world could help automate the monitoring process.Glaciers that flow directly into the ocean play a crucial role in the earth’s climate, but global warming is making them retreat ever faster. This can have severe knock-on effects as ic

Four approaches can dramatically improve the performance and trustworthiness of AI agents in operational environments.

The harnesses that mediate between models and tools in agentic systems are becoming their own performance bottleneck, but a few simple design principles can fix what ails them.

A year ago at London Tech Week, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang and U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer made a declaration: the U.K. would be an AI maker, not an AI taker.  At this year’s event, NVIDIA and its partners are showcasing how that commitment is producing real momentum across the nation’s infrastructure, startups […]

New graduates’ careers are unfolding in an era when AI is not optional. The most successful engineers treat artificial intelligence as leverage, not competition.Here are seven tips to help keep young professionals in demand no matter how quickly the field’s tools evolve.1. Master the fundamentals first. AI tools can help you code, but you still need strong fundamentals in:Data structures and algorithms for problem-solving.Operating systems, databases, and networking for system-level understandin

Automatically fact-checking long, AI-generated research reports poses new challenges — including benchmarking.

What makes a robot gripper useful isn’t that it can pick up one object — it’s that it can pick up the next one, and the one after that, with a tool it’s never held before.  What makes an autonomous vehicle system safe isn’t just that it can reason through a situation — it’s that […]

At CVPR, NVIDIA is unveiling new physical AI agent skills that help researchers and developers speed the development of autonomous vehicles, robots and vision AI systems. The core challenge in physical AI research isn’t simply developing stronger models. It’s building a full workflow around them — reconstructing real-world scenes, generating edge-case scenarios, training policies, evaluating […]

Accelerated computing has revolutionized industrial engineering, compressing simulation times from weeks to hours.  Today’s remaining challenges sit in the end-to-end workflow surrounding the simulations: computer-aided design, meshing, simulation setup and debugging, as well as post-processing and generating summary reports of these processes.  At GTC Taipei at COMPUTEX, NVIDIA and more than a dozen engineering software […]

The agentic AI moment has arrived, but delivering on its promise requires more than good models. It also takes fast hardware, secure runtimes, a responsive data layer and models tuned for long-running reasoning. NVIDIA and Microsoft are bringing that full stack to developers across Windows devices, Azure cloud and local deployments. At Microsoft Build, NVIDIA […]

As AI systems become more capable, a lot of resources and effort are being put toward measuring their abilities. Researchers look at technical evaluation metrics, subject AIs to reasoning tests, track their throughput, and much more. But there’s one key metric that often gets overlooked, and it’s arguably the most important of all: What is AI doing to humans?Imran Khan leads psychosocial evaluation of AI at the nonprofit Center for Humane Technology. In a recent essay published on the organizati

Financial institutions have spent years building AI: fraud models, credit models, recommendation engines and risk systems. While this sprawl of task-specific models has been effective, it’s also constrained by siloed systems.  Siloed systems prevent institutions from developing a unified understanding of consumers’ financial behavior. As enterprise datasets keep growing, so does the gap between what […]

Memory is arguably the most serious constraint on modern AI large language models (LLMs). According to one influential paper, LLM token generation is an inherently memory-bound task, meaning the rate at which models output text is limited by how quickly data can be read in from memory. The severity of this bottleneck grows with model size. This creates a “memory wall” that holds back LLM inference performance.AI hardware startup Majestic Labs is taking a direct—and comprehensive—approach to solv

The NVIDIA AI Cloud ecosystem is accelerating the global buildout of AI factory infrastructure.

I have been an application-specific IC (ASIC) designer for almost three decades. Over that time, I’ve moved through the full academic trajectory, from graduate student to full professor; later, I transitioned to industry after an unsuccessful stint at entrepreneurship. When I made the switch to the private sector in 2019, I began focusing on a critically important aspect of the electronic industry: silicon intellectual property. As much as 80 percent of the physical area in today’s most advanced
