Ivana SPEAR just published Spear's AI primer and ecosystem map!
While most people are focused on the application layer (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot 365), there is much more to the AI opportunity.
Nvdia in a virtuous cycle?
As highlighted, by Kakashii, Nvidia is somewhat fuelling their own growth by investing in AI startups which will purchase their AI chips! Indeed, Nvidia is one of generative AI’s most active investors. Let's review some of the deals the chipmaker is backing. Behind the scenes, Nvidia has been investing heavily in generative AI companies. The chipmaker’s overall deal activity has climbed dramatically in 2023 (see chart below)
A look back on just how rapid Nvidia's $NVDA data center growth has been
· +79.7% CAGR since Q3 FY17's $240M revenue. · Reached record levels at $1.9B in Q3 FY21. · Grown 664% since then to $14.51B in Q3 FY24. · Projected to reach $46.6B in FY24, 56x more than FY17's $830M. Source: Beth Kindig
