At Nvidia's GTC, Jensen Huang framed AI work in terms of 'tokens'—the units used to measure and price processing—predicting tokens will become a major corporate expense and even be part of compensation, with future computers manufacturing tokens as AI agents run around the clock, increasing token usage while hardware advances bring costs down.
At its GTC conference, Nvidia unveiled a product that pairs its chips with Groq’s acceleration tech to boost AI inference speed and cut costs, a move aimed at defending its dominant hardware position as rivals advance. The announcement follows Nvidia’s $20 billion Groq licensing deal and includes NemoClaw to help software companies deploy AI agents, all while supply-chain and manufacturing constraints shape growth prospects for its Rubin and Blackwell line.
At Nvidia's GTC, CEO Jensen Huang forecast up to $1 trillion in purchase orders for the Blackwell and Vera Rubin AI systems by 2027, up from an earlier $500 billion projection, as demand from startups and large enterprises accelerates; the company unveiled the Groq 3 LPU and a Kyber rack for Vera Rubin Ultra, plus a Groq LPX rack that Nvidia says boosts tokens-per-watt by up to 35x, and introduced NemoClaw for OpenClaw, while highlighting Uber's Drive AV partnership and approvals from automakers like Nissan, BYD, Geely, Isuzu and Hyundai building Level 4 on Drive Hyperion; Nvidia also flagged strong revenue growth with year-over-year sales around 77% to about $78 billion this quarter, reinforcing its position as a leading AI hardware supplier.
Analysts remain skeptical that Nvidia’s GTC will spark a thesis-altering stock move, with shares down about 3% this year and near‑term growth constrained by supply issues. Investors will look for concrete details on the Vera Rubin/Feynman roadmap, the potential Groq-based chip platform from a $20 billion licensing deal, and possible CPU collaborations with Intel, all while Nvidia pushes a full‑stack AI factory approach and expands optical interconnects via NVLink and recent silicon photonics partnerships with Coherent and Lumentum.
Cantor analyst C.J. Muse argues Nvidia will remain at the forefront of AI infrastructure at its GTC event, highlighting leadership in training and inference plus progress on Vera Rubin, Vera CPU and CPO. Muse is bullish, keeping an Overweight rating with a $300 target and suggesting strong upside, while the street shows a Strong Buy consensus with meaningful one-year upside. The piece frames Nvidia as key exposure to AI demand amid a potentially choppy market backdrop.
Bank of America analyst Vivek Arya remains bullish on Nvidia, citing strong data center order projections and positive discussions with Nvidia's management, supporting a $275 price target and a 'Buy' rating, with expectations of significant stock gains despite Nvidia's recent $5 trillion market cap milestone.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made a Taylor Swift joke during his keynote speech at the GPU Technology Conference, referencing her treadmill training regime, which seemed to acknowledge his reputation among AI enthusiasts. Despite the humor, he also unveiled the company's next-generation AI chip, Blackwell, and engaged in playful banter, showcasing his likeability factor and ability to lead a prominent tech company.
Nvidia introduces Project GR00T, a new AI platform for humanoid robots, aiming to support companies like Agility Robotics, Boston Dynamics, and others. The platform will also include new hardware such as Jetson Thor, designed for running simulation workflows and generative AI models. Additionally, Nvidia announces Isaac Manipulator and Isaac Perceptor programs to enhance robotic arms and autonomous mobile robotics, signaling the company's keen interest in the robotics market.
Nvidia's GPU Technology Conference (GTC) is set to begin in San Jose, featuring CEO Jensen Huang's keynote address and the unveiling of the powerful B100 AI chip, which is expected to be a game-changer for developers in the AI space.
Nvidia is set to unveil its latest tech, including the RTX 50-series "Blackwell" GB203 and new GB205 GPUs, at the 2024 GTC event. Despite a recent stock decline, Wedbush analysts raised their price target on Nvidia to $1,000 per share. Matt Bryson of Wedbush Securities discusses the semiconductor landscape, highlighting Nvidia's efforts to maintain its market share lead and the potential impact on competitors like Intel and AMD. Additionally, Intel's funding situation for chip manufacturing is under scrutiny.
Nvidia's GTC conference announced DGX Cloud, a big shift in the value chain for Nvidia, which allows partners to offer their own services on top of Nvidia's hardware and software. This move is expected to expand Nvidia's reach and increase its revenue.
