AI Revolution: Nvidia Crafting "AI Brain"

Jensen Huang views artificial intelligence as the driving force behind the new industrial revolution;

According to him, Nvidia has applied AI to fields such as chip design, software writing, and supply chain management.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently stated that we are witnessing the dawn of a new industrial revolution, only the driving force of this revolution is not steam or electricity, but artificial intelligence (AI).

Huang addressed thousands of corporate technology leaders at the Gartner IT Symposium in Orlando, USA, stating that their companies must transform into AI-driven organizations to prepare for this "new industrial revolution."

He also said that Nvidia has put this concept into practice, applying AI to fields such as chip design, software writing, and supply chain management. Huang said that in the long term, Nvidia is building an "AI brain."

The Gartner IT Symposium in Orlando, USA, was held from October 21st to 24th. This is the most authoritative software and service outsourcing exhibition in the United States. Explore technologies, insights, and trends that shape the future of IT and business, discuss key topics, including data and analytics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, culture, customer experience, cybersecurity, and more.At the conference, AI revolutionary Huang Renxun stated that the transition from traditional software coding to artificial intelligence neural networks has "completely changed the entire system." This shift is not just about more powerful computing, but also about redefining the nature of work. He said, "Artificial intelligence learns not tools, but jobs."

Unlike software tools designed for humans, artificial intelligence can acquire skills, reason through complex problems, and even collaborate with other AI systems to perform tasks autonomously. In Huang Renxun's view, this marks a significant transformation for the entire enterprise. "Historically focused on manufacturing tools—including hardware and software—the world now sees the intelligent digital version."

"We are facing an unprecedented new industry. This is the beginning of a new industrial revolution," he said. The power of AI is in its early stages, with the concept of software as a product—abstract, yet of high value.

Huang Renxun believes that artificial intelligence will follow a similar trajectory, only this time it's not about software, but the "tokens" (the smallest semantic units in the text) being produced, which are the building blocks of artificial intelligence.

These "tokens" generated by artificial intelligence represent a new form of output. He explained: "We are creating digital versions of a large amount of very valuable things, which we call intelligence. Tokens can be restructured into language, video, or images."He believes that soon, the world might even witness "tokenized" robot vocalizations, where robots can perform tasks using natural language and behave in specific ways.

How does NVIDIA "implant" AI? Jensen Huang also stated that the artificial intelligence revolution is "profound" for us, but many business leaders still wonder where it can be reflected.

According to him, NVIDIA is developing what Huang refers to as an "AI brain," which is the foundational technology that powers artificial intelligence. But as a company itself, the firm is also embedding artificial intelligence in its operations—he says every company should do this now.

It is reported that artificial intelligence has been used to optimize key processes such as NVIDIA's chip design and supply chain management. "Similarly, business leaders should focus on integrating artificial intelligence into all their platforms and databases. The benefit of artificial intelligence is that it can capture institutional knowledge, and this institutional knowledge will never leave the company," he said.The next big trend is agent-based artificial intelligence, which refers to models capable of making decisions with minimal human intervention. NVIDIA has been collaborating with companies such as SAP and ServiceNow to incorporate such agents into their systems.
