TAIPEI (TVBS News) — NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang engaged with local and international media on Tuesday on the sidelines of COMPUTEX Taipei. Huang discussed the company's optimistic forecasts and ongoing investments in AI computing, emphasizing the importance of accelerated computing in mitigating energy consumption risks.
"This is a great opportunity for Taiwan because there are so many amazing companies here," Huang said. "This is the home of NVIDIA technology partners."
Collaboration with Foxconn
Huang highlighted NVIDIA's extensive collaboration with Foxconn, noting their joint efforts in building Blackwell GPU servers and AI supercomputers. "We are doing many things with Foxconn," Huang explained. "Of course, they're building Blackwell GPU servers with us and AI supercomputers with us. They also are the data center to host our super AI computer in Kaohsiung, and that's where our Taipei-1 is. And we look forward to expanding that."
The partnership extends beyond data centers to include automated factories and AI-driven robots. "They also use NVIDIA technology for their automated factories using AI for their factories, AI for their robots. We're doing a lot of things together. Foxconn is really an amazing company," Huang said.
During the press conference, Huang dismissed concerns about potential electricity shortages due to the rise of AI, particularly in Taiwan. He stressed the importance of building AI infrastructure to support the growing demand. "Accelerated computing helps mitigate the risks of high energy consumption," Huang stated, pointing out that it leverages the decrease in marginal costs of training large language models (LLMs).
Reporters inquired about how NVIDIA plans to address these energy challenges while continuing to innovate in AI technology. Huang assured them that NVIDIA is committed to sustainable practices and efficient energy use. NVIDIA is always looking for ways to optimize energy consumption and make AI solutions more efficient, he explained.
The Future of AI in Taiwan
Huang's remarks underscored Taiwan's pivotal role in the future of AI technology. He praised the region's strong network of technology partners and its vibrant ecosystem of innovative companies. "This is the home of NVIDIA technology partners," Huang emphasized. "There are so many amazing companies here, and this is a great opportunity for Taiwan."
The press conference highlighted NVIDIA's strategic vision and its dedication to pushing the boundaries of AI technology. As the company continues to invest in AI computing, the future looks promising for both NVIDIA and its partners in Taiwan.
