Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's remarks follow a Wall Street Journal report that Nvidia was reconsidering the scale of its investment in OpenAI, even as the AI startup prepares for what could be one of the largest funding rounds in tech history.
Last year, a low-cost generative AI model from China's DeepSeek, on par with US rivals, upended assumptions of American dominance in the fast-moving field
Intelligence is created when applications are embedded into real workflows and operate at scale rather than through models or tokens in isolation, Nvidia's managing director for South Asia Vishal Dhupar has said
China, the largest market for semiconductors, is looking to build up its homegrown chip industry and decrease reliance on US products.
Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, has sparked debate in the software industry after saying he wants engineers to spend “zero percent” of their time writing code. Instead, Huang wants them to focus on identifying and solving problems that have not yet been addressed, while artificial intelligence handles most of the coding work.
The Commerce Department said it will review applications for AI chip exports to China on a case-by-case basis, easing a previous US stance presuming denial of any request for permission to sell to customers in the Asian country.
The investment is the latest example of Nvidia using its newfound financial might to cultivate fresh markets for its products.
Nvidia wants to supply the intelligence layer for autonomy without building the car itself, but it still wants to own the technology that makes self-driving a reality
Nvidia has reportedly rewritten the rulebook for its Chinese clientele, demanding full upfront payment for its flagship H200 AI processors. With over two million units on backorder and regulatory goalposts moving on both sides of the Pacific, the chipmaker is effectively offloading its geopolitical risk onto the buyer.
Nvidia dominates the graphics processing unit (GPU) market globally with over 80 per cent share.
However, the H200 chip will be barred from the military, sensitive government agencies, critical infrastructure and state-owned enterprises due to security concerns
Nvidia has been caught between Washington and Beijing, as the United States tightens controls on exports of advanced semiconductors used in AI, while Chinese companies seek to reduce reliance on U.S.-designed chips.
The Vera Rubin platform, made up of six separate Nvidia chips, is expected to debut later this year
At CES 2026, Nvidia has introduced Alpamayo, a new open source AI platform designed to help autonomous vehicles reason through complex, real-world driving scenarios. The company is pitching it as a turning point for physical AI, where machines do not just react to sensor data, but actively think through decisions and explain them.
Nvidia’s licensing deal with Groq allows the AI startup to remain independent while delivering major payouts to employees and shareholders.
Nvidia has signed a non-exclusive licensing deal with Groq, hired its founder and president, and acquired assets reportedly valued at $20 billion, giving it access to alternative AI chip technology without fully acquiring the company.
The clip shows Jensen Huang recounting his early years working as a busboy, waiter, dishwasher and toilet cleaner. 'To me, no task is beneath me because, remember, I used to be a dishwasher [and] I used to clean toilets…' he said.
Nvidia has denied a report claiming that China’s AI startup DeepSeek used banned Nvidia chips, saying there is no evidence to support the allegation and that the company is complying with US export rules.
The employee, who asked to remain anonymous, described the setup at one of Microsoft’s data centres as wasteful in an email circulated within Nvidia.
Nvidia is testing optional chip-tracking software for its Blackwell processors as rumours grow about smuggled hardware reaching China, though the company denies seeing evidence of such activity.
Nvidia denies reports that DeepSeek is using smuggled Blackwell GPUs, while the company develops new location-tracking tools to help prevent chip diversion into restricted markets.
A clear explainer on what the decision means for US–China relations, the AI race, and the global chip supply chain.
Nvidia's dominance in AI chips has made it a trillion-dollar giant, but tech rivals and geopolitical pressures are now threatening its reign
Tesla is already in the spotlight as shareholders debate Musk’s proposed $1 trillion award, which hinges on performance milestones
The 'semiconductor-shaped' chips are an ;initiative to bring semiconductors closer to everyday life and make the public feel more familiar with them,' an SK Hynix official said.
