NVIDIA

NVIDIA is an American technology company that designs graphics processing units (GPUs) and the accelerated-computing platforms built around them. Founded in 1993 to chase realistic 3D graphics for video games, it turned its parallel-processing chips and the CUDA software layer into the dominant engine of the modern AI boom. Today its data-center systems train and run most of the world's large AI models, and the company sits at the center of the semiconductor industry with a market value above $5 trillion.
