Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang: We're building AI factories
In This Article:
It's hard to find a company that has gained more from the AI boom than Nvidia (NVDA). In the first quarter, the company posted a 262% rise in revenue. Its Data Center unit specifically saw its revenue soar 427% year over year to $22.6 billion. Why? Nvidia founder and CEO Jensen Huang says its because the company is basically making "AI factories." "These AI factories are essentially what we build. We build it as a holistic unit, as a holistic architecture and platform, but then we disaggregate it so that our partners could take it and put it into data centers of any kind," Huang tells Yahoo Finance in an exclusive interview.
When it comes to demand for these products, Huang claims it's "so strong," adding "Hopper demand grew throughout this quarter after we announced Blackwell, and so that kind of tells you how much demand there is out there. People want to deploy these data centers right now."
