Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and the future of…everything — from fierceelectronics.com by Matt Hamblen
Excerpt:
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang confirmed his reputation as a futurist, predicting every single car, truck, cell tower—indeed every single edge device—will in effect be a data center in a decade.
He also said in a call with reporters on Tuesday that the chip shortage hurting automakers will sort itself out in a couple of years.
The concept of edge devices acting with the capabilities of a data center might not be completely new, but Huang cemented it.
“Every single data center will have its infrastructure computing platform isolated from the application platform in five or 10 years,” he told reporters as part of the company’s GTC21 event. “It’s going to be complete. Every single edge device will be a data center…Every single cell tower will be a data center, every base station…Every single car… truck, shuttle will be a data center.”
