Deep Learning Starts AI Revolution GPU Extends Performance Post-Moore’s Law

Two forces are driving the future of computing. First, the combination of deep learning, big data, and GPU computing has
ignited the AI revolution. Second, Moore’s law has ended. Transistors continue to grow by 50% per year, but CPU
performance only grows by 10%. Built on the CUDA architecture, NVIDIA GPU computing has given the industry a path
forward just in time for AI. The number of GPU developers has grown 15X in the last five years to more than 645,000.
“NVIDIA Signs Massive Deal
with China’s Kingpins”
—Seeking Alpha

NVIDIA Tesla V100, a 120 TeraFLOPS processor created to drive the next wave of AI, was adopted by Alibaba, Baidu, and
Tencent for their datacenters and cloud service infrastructures. Researchers and startups can now rent the most advanced
AI infrastructure in the cloud and avoid the complexities and expense of building a supercomputer. In addition, Huawei,
Inspur, and Lenovo are using the NVIDIA HGX reference architecture to offer Volta-based servers for enterprises requiring a
dedicated AI supercomputer.
 “NVIDIA GPU Cloud Democratizes AI for Developers on AWS”
—TechRepublic

NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) simplifies AI development for a rapidly growing base of users. NGC manages a catalog of
integrated and optimized deep learning framework containers, and can run on any computing environment, from PCs to
datacenters or in the cloud. We announced availability of NGC on Amazon Web Services, which also launched the first
cloud instances powered by Tesla V100.
In Taiwan, we announced an extensive partnership with the country’s Ministry of Science and Technology centered on
building the country’s first AI-focused supercomputer at the National Center for High-Performance Computing. Based on
the NVIDIA DGX computing platform, it aims to reach 4 petaflops of performance — placing it among the world’s top 25
fastest supercomputers. The new partnership will also include professional training, startup development, and
investments in the country’s “AI Edge” semiconductor competitiveness initiative.
 “Inferencing Is a Huge Market with Infinite Potential.
With TensorRT 3 NVIDIA Is Ahead of the Game.”
—AI Era

AI will infuse intelligence into 20 million cloud servers, hundreds of millions of autonomous machines, and trillions
of IoT devices. But AI inferencing platforms must be programmable to run the increasingly diverse, and more
complex, AI networks. We announced TensorRT 3, the world’s first programmable inference accelerator, which sharply
boosts the performance and slashes the cost of inferencing, from the cloud to edge devices. TensorRT supports all
frameworks and determines the optimal strategy for each target GPU.

The performance of TensorRT is groundbreaking. TensorRT 3 on Volta speeds up image classification 40X over the fastest
CPU, and 140X for language translation. With such performance, just one 8-GPU server can replace 160 dual-CPU servers.
More than 1,200 companies have already begun using NVIDIA's inference platform, including leading Chinese AI companies
Alibaba, Baidu, iFLYTEK, JD.com, and WeChat.

DRIVE PX — AI CAR COMPUTER

Transportation is the fabric of society. Autonomous vehicles will change it forever. To help the industry adopt AVs, NVIDIA
created the DRIVE platform. Based on a powerful AI car computer and ASIL-D operating system, the open platform brings
together algorithms, tools, and a suite of self-driving car applications.
 Level 2 Level 5

Ride-hailing services have seen exponential growth in recent years. Now, providers are looking to move quickly toward
completely driverless robotaxis — fully-autonomous, Level 5 vehicles that rely on redundant sets of sensors like LIDAR
and 360-degree surround cameras with the precision to keep riders safe. Expected to be the first Level 5 vehicles on
city streets, robotaxis will demand a high-performance mobile computer that can process real-time data streams and
maintain completely fail-safe operation.

Royal Flush for Self-Driving Cars”
—Seeking Alpha

“NVIDIA gets it. And their Drive PX

Pegasus will get us to Level 5.”
—EE Times

“This is potentially world-changing.”

—Datamation

NVIDIA DRIVE PX “Pegasus” is the world’s first AI computer designed to drive fully
autonomous robotaxis. Delivering more than 320 trillion operations per second,
Pegasus is a supercomputing datacenter in your trunk, and will help make possible
a new class of vehicle without steering wheels, pedals, or mirrors.

Self-driving cars are just one exciting area of autonomous machines. It will soon be possible to create many other classes of
machines that can perceive their surroundings, understand their situation, and reason about what to do next. Created to
power the new era of autonomous machines, the NVIDIA Jetson platform is a pocket-sized AI supercomputer complemented
by the JetPack SDK and DIGITS deep learning development environment. The NVIDIA Isaac robot simulator allows developers
to train robots in highly realistic, physics-based virtual environments and then transfer that knowledge to real-world units.

Robotics will revolutionize manufacturing, logistics, and delivery. JD.com, one of the world’s largest retailers and operators
of logistics, has adopted the NVIDIA Jetson platform for autonomous machines.

—21csp

One billion smart cameras will be deployed by 2020 to make our cities smarter and safer. But it will be impossible to
manually monitor them. Building the AI City is a massive inference challenge. NVIDIA Metropolis is an edge-to-cloud
platform that brings the power of AI to smart city applications, from improving traffic to enhancing law enforcement.
Hikvision, the world’s leading intelligent video solutions company, adopted the NVIDIA platform from end to end. Alibaba,
Dahua, and Huawei have also created AI solutions on NVIDIA.

“Every Star Trek fan in the world has been

waiting for a real-life Holodeck to emerge.
NVIDIA has gone and built one.”
—Hot Hardware

Our leadership in breakthrough graphics and AI comes together in NVIDIA Holodeck, a VR-based design studio of the future.
It brings designers, developers, and their customers together from anywhere in the world to build products in a
photorealistic, physics-based VR environment. We announced an early access program for designers eager to jump into the
Holodeck.
