‘Ended digital divide’: Here's what Nvidia chief has to say on AI technology

Speaking at the Computex forum in Taipei, Huang said that AI was leading a computing revolution. "There's no question we're in a new computing era. Every single computing era you could do different things that weren't possible before, and artificial intelligence certainly qualifies," news agency Reuters quoted Huang as saying.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbots like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Bard and Microsoft's Bing Chat have now got various abilities, including writing code. According to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, this functionality has ended the "digital divide" and everyone can now be a programmer.
Speaking at the Computex forum in Taipei, Huang said that AI was leading a computing revolution.

"There's no question we're in a new computing era. Every single computing era you could do different things that weren't possible before, and artificial intelligence certainly qualifies," news agency Reuters quoted Huang as saying.
"The programming barrier is incredibly low. We have closed the digital divide. Everyone is a programmer now - you just have to say something to the computer. The rate of progress, because it's so easy to use, is the reason why it's growing so fast. This is going to touch literally every single industry," Huang added.

At Computex, Nvidia announced platforms for companies to use generative AI in their businesses.
Nvidia DGX GH200
For enterprises, Nvidia unveiled DGX GH200, a large-memory AI supercomputer. It uses Nvidia NVLink to combine up to 256 Nvidia GH200 Grace Hopper Superchips into a single data-centre-sized GPU. The GH200 Superchip is in full production and combines an energy-efficient Nvidia Grace CPU with a high-performance Nvidia H100 Tensor Core GPU in one super chip.

The DGX GH200 packs 144TB of shared memory, which Nvidia says is nearly 500x more than in a single Nvidia DGX A100 320GB system. The new system will enable developers to build large language models for generative AI chatbots, complex algorithms for recommender systems and graph neural networks used for fraud detection and data analytics.

“DGX GH200 AI supercomputers integrate NVIDIA’s most advanced accelerated computing and networking technologies to expand the frontier of AI,” Huang noted.
Google Cloud, Meta and Microsoft are among the first expected to gain access to the DGX GH200, which can be used as a blueprint for future hyper-scale generative AI infrastructure.
Nvidia is also building an AI supercomputer, NVIDIA Helios, which will be coming online this year.
