Taipei: Nvidia on Sunday unveiled new products and plans to accelerate the advance of artificial intelligence, with the AI hardware titan's CEO telling a packed stadium in Taipei that "the next industrial revolution has begun".
Jensen Huang is in Taiwan for the island's premier tech expo, Computex, along with the CEOs of some of the world's biggest semiconductor heavyweights -- including AMD, Intel and Qualcomm -- and their plans for a tech industry dominated by AI are top of the agenda.
Taiwan-born Huang has celebrity status on the island, and there was huge media and public interest in his visit thanks in large part to Nvidia's status as the undisputed leader in the specialised chips and hardware needed to build and run cutting-edge AI.
"Companies and countries are partnering with Nvidia to shift the trillion-dollar traditional data centers to accelerated computing and build a new type of data center -- AI factories -- to produce a new commodity: artificial intelligence," Huang told the crowd at National Taiwan University's sports center.
He announced the general availability of Nvidia ACE generative AI, which can create lifelike human avatars for industries such as customer support.
