Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says the performance of his company's AI chips is advancing faster than historical rates set by Moore's Law, the rubric that drove

CEO Jensen Huang said Nvidia tapped MediaTek to co-design an energy-efficient CPU that could be sold more widely.

The White House is finalizing additional restrictions on the export of artificial intelligence microchips that would hit companies including Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices, according to a report.

President Joe Biden’s administration plans one additional round of restrictions on the export of artificial intelligence chips from the likes of Nvidia Corp. just days before leaving office, a final push in his effort to keep advanced technologies out of the hands of China and Russia.

But what's inside makes it pretty special. Digits is powered by Nvidia's new GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, which delivers up to 1 petaflop of AI performance, and Nvidia teamed up with MediaTek to make the chip more energy-efficient, meaning that running it requires the kind of power you get from a standard power outlet.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang also announced new AI tools for creating autonomous agents during a keynote address at CES.

Nvidia offers a range of similar devices in the same accessibility style — in December, it announced a $249 version of its Jetson computer for AI applications, targeting hobbyists and startups, called the Jetson Orin Nano Super (it handles models up to 8 billion parameters ).
