Nvidia has found itself increasingly close to Musk’s business following Musk’s controversial words and actions, including his stance against X and comments about anti-Semitism.
Although Jen-Hsun Huang’s response to the publication of concerns about Nvidia’s relationship with Musk’s company is more explicit than the demand for GPUs and Replica-related products. As Nvidia’s revenue soars and its market value surpasses $2 trillion, the company’s shares play a key role in Musk’s ambitious artificial intelligence plan.
At Nvidia’s recent GTC conference, executives from Musk’s new venture xAI announced their partnership with Nvidia, suggesting that Nvidia GPUs are being used to accelerate the development of intellectual intelligence and that the Grok model is being considered.
Musk’s claim that “there is currently no better AI than NVIDIA hardware” highlights the importance of Nvidia technology in its AI-focused plans, from Tesla’s driverless car to xAI’s AI chatbot.
While it was reported that Tesla invested heavily in Nvidia hardware for artificial intelligence training, Musk also talked about the development of Tesla Bot and Dojo supercomputers. Although Musk claims Tesla will spend billions of dollars on Nvidia hardware, he still promises to build the Dojo without Nvidia technology, positioning Tesla as an AI/robotics company rather than just a car company.
But there are still challenges in ensuring Nvidia GPUs are available in sufficient quantity, as seen in Tesla’s request to release Oracle resources. Musk’s relationship with xAI friend and investor Larry Ellison demonstrates the interconnected network of collaborations driving Musk’s AI goals.
Despite occasional tensions, such as Musk’s previous criticism of Nvidia’s monopolistic practices, Mr. Musk and Mr. Huang is still strong. Huang acknowledged that Musk played a key role in encouraging Nvidia’s move into AI supercomputing; This journey began when Nvidia sent its first artificial intelligence supercomputer to OpenAI, at Musk’s request.
While Nvidia declined to comment on Tesla and xAI relationships, the relationship between Musk’s business and Nvidia highlights the interconnectedness of the AI ââecosystem and Nvidia technology. Urine is key to Musk’s artificial intelligence. business.
