Nvidia’s $20B Loophole Explained
NVIDIA just made a $20 BILLION move to stay on top of the AI market
While most of us were distracted by the holidays, NVIDIA quietly struck a massive deal with Groq, the startup behind ultra-fast LPUs (Language Processing Units). These chips are designed specifically for text generation, allowing AI models to run up to 10x faster and using 10x less energy than standard GPUs.
But the twist is that this is NOT technically an acquisition. To sidestep regulatory scrutiny, NVIDIA is calling it a “non-exclusive licensing agreement” while essentially hiring Groq’s top talent, including founder Jonathan Ross, who built Google’s TPUs that are in intense competition with these new LPUs.
It's a whole new level of the growing AI web of companies, which I've covered before.
The whole story is in my latest YouTube video.
