Nscale, which recently struck a $45 billion deal with Anthropic, is in talks to raise additional funds in anticipation of an upcoming IPO.
It’s officially the Ternus era at Apple. Tim Cook stepped down as CEO this week, handing the company to former hardware chief John Ternus, whose first memo promised a “huge launch next week” — timing that puts Apple’s next iPhone event on his desk before he’s even settled in. Cook isn’t going far, though: he’s staying on as Executive Chairman, focused on the kind of policy […]
Officially, Nvidia's controversial DLSS 5 AI rendering was supposed to launch this evening with only a single game, only on Nvidia's latest RTX 50 GPUs, and with developers in full control of their artistic vision. But unofficially, modders have already ported a leaked version of DLSS 5 to run on just about anything while cranking […]
Nvidia says Hugging Face will stay open even as the chipmaker takes control of a key AI hub.
The long-rumored deal will give the chip giant access to—and help it promote—a huge repository of open-source AI models and data sets.
Nvidia said Hugging Face hosts over 3 million models and is used by over 18 million developers.
Nvidia has agreed to buy Hugging Face for $12.93 billion, bringing one of the most popular hosting platforms for open-source AI models, datasets, and tools under the ownership of the world's biggest AI chipmaker. Hugging Face is an online platform founded in 2016 that gives AI developers a space to share their projects and data […]
On our new Real World AI stage, we’ll be focusing on the intersection between the digital and physical, and all the ways we’ll continue to see a blending of the two.
Nvidia knows that DLSS 5 left a bad first impression. In March, many gamers took one look at Resident Evil Requiem protagonist Grace Ashcroft's DLSS 5-ified face and declared it AI slop. So this week, the company's re-introducing its controversial "neural rendering" with firm messaging about how it "preserves artistic intent," "respects the rendered frame," […]
Nvidia is officially launching DLSS 5 this week, following a divisive announcement in March where we likened the AI upscaling tech to a "real-time generative AI filter for video games" and "motion smoothing for video games, but worse." DLSS 5 will officially be available on RTX 50-series desktop and laptop GPUs and through GeForce Now […]
Does Jalapeño beat NVIDIA? On the benchmark OpenAI published, yes. Does that make it a better chip than NVIDIA's Blackwell platform? The evidence does not support that claim yet. Should NVIDIA care? Yes. Jalapeño gives OpenAI a credible way to move repeated, high-volume inference onto hardware it controls. That changes how OpenAI buys GPUs, how much pricing power NVIDIA keeps, and how expensive it is to leave CUDA. That is a narrower claim than "NVIDIA killer." It is also more interesting. Short version: Jalapeño is an inference ASIC co-developed by OpenAI and Broadcom. Early results show excellent latency and performance per watt on three large models. It has not yet proved production-scale economics, long-context agent performance, or fleet reliability. Near term, it gives OpenAI capacity and negotiating power. Over time, it could take a profitable slice of inference away from merchant GPUs and weaken one part of NVIDIA's software moat. This is infrastructure analysis, not a stock call. What exactly is Jalapeño? OpenAI calls Jalapeño its first "Intelligence Processor." The plainer description is a custom ASIC for large-language-model inference, built with Broadcom and turned into boards, racks, and production systems with Celestica. This is intended to become more than a lab project. OpenAI and Broadcom announced a 10-gigawatt custom-accelerator program in October 2025, with racks targeted to start deploying in the second half of 2026 and the program running through 2029. Those gigawatts are a roadmap, not deployed capacity. The original collaboration announcement states the schedule . Inference is the part that happens after training. A model has already learned its weights. The system now has to process a prompt, generate tokens, maintain the conversation state, route requests, and repeat that work for millions of users and agents. NVIDIA GPUs can train models and serve them. Jalapeño has a smaller job description. It is designed around serving current and futur
The new generation of data center systems is increasing efficiency with smarter traffic control instead of just more processor cycles.
The unexpected interruption came hours before the president wrote a congratulatory post on Truth Social about the company’s most recent earnings report.
There's a lot of capital pouring into the business of giving models away.
Modders are trying out an unofficial version of Nvidia's DLSS 5 on Skyrim, Cyberpunk 2077, GTA V, and a bunch of other games after code for the AI upscaling tech appeared in an early-access build of NBA 2K27. Members of the RenoDX modding channel on Discord reportedly found a way to extract the DLSS "Neural […]
Nvidia is nabbing critical infrastructure for open models as interest grows.
On Nvidia's earnings call Wednesday, CEO Jensen Huang casually announced the company had "achieved AGI," one of the tech industry's ultimate goals some of its biggest players have spent years chasing. Almost immediately, Huang dismissed the coveted milestone as "senseless." He's right. For the supposed finish line of the AI race, there is no consensus […]
Amazon is adding another 2 million Nvidia GPU chips to its data centers over the next two years. But this extended partnerships stretches beyond buying more chips.
Nvidia's predicting it will pull in $108 billion in revenue within just a few months. It wouldn't be the first company to rake in over $100 billion in quarterly revenue - Amazon, Apple, and Alphabet have repeatedly reached the milestone. Nvidia said in its latest earnings report that it brought in a record $96.2 billion […]
The new deal with the infrastructure provider is the latest example of Anthropic's white-hot compute-gobbling streak.
