Semiconductor maker Nvidia on Monday unveiled its new artificial intelligence (AI) graphics platform and software for running artificial intelligence models at its developer conference in San Jose, California.

The US chipmaker’s new AI computing platform is called Blackwell, a successor to Hopper, and the platform’s first chip is called the GB200, which will be released later this year.

“Hopper is fantastic, but we need bigger GPUs,” Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang told the conference, according to Anadolu.

The amount of energy we save, the wasted time we save will be huge, he added. “The way we calculate is fundamentally different. We’ve created a processor for the age of productive artificial intelligence.”

Huang said generative AI is changing the way applications are written, adding that Nvidia’s new NIM software for running AI models will facilitate AI development. NVIDIA aims to establish itself as the primary AI technology supplier of choice for companies.
