NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang unveiled an ambitious vision for the future of AI at COMPUTEX 2025, declaring AI as the next major technology poised to transform every industry and country. He emphasized the need for "AI factories," describing them as specialized data centers that produce valuable "tokens" by applying energy. Huang highlighted NVIDIA's CUDA-X platform and its partnerships, showcasing how these are driving advancements in areas such as 6G development and quantum supercomputing. He stressed the importance of Taiwan in the global technology ecosystem.
NVIDIA is expanding its AI ecosystem by opening up its high-speed NVLink interconnect technology to custom CPUs and ASICs via NVLink Fusion. This move allows for greater integration of custom compute solutions into rack-scale architectures. The NVLink fabric, known for its high bandwidth capabilities, facilitates seamless communication between GPUs and CPUs, offering a significant advantage over PCIe 5.0. Nvidia is allowing semi-custom accelerator designs to take advantage of the high-speed interconnect - even for non-Nvidia-designed accelerators.
NVIDIA and Foxconn are partnering with the Taiwan government to construct an AI factory supercomputer, equipped with 10,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs, to support local researchers and enterprises. This supercomputer, facilitated by Foxconn's Big Innovation Company, will provide AI cloud computing resources to the Taiwan technology ecosystem. This collaboration aims to accelerate AI development and adoption across various sectors, reinforcing Taiwan's position as a key player in the global AI landscape.
