Nvidia: US tech giant unveils latest artificial intelligence chip
https://www.bbc.com/news/business-68603198

“Nvidia has unveiled its latest artificial intelligence (AI) chip which it says can do some tasks 30 times faster than its predecessor.

The firm has an 80% market share and hopes to cement its dominance.

In addition to the B200 “Blackwell” chip, its chief executive Jensen Huang detailed a new set of software tools at its annual developer conference.

Nvidia is the third-most valuable company in the US, behind only Microsoft and Apple.

Nvidia said major customers including Amazon, Google, Microsoft and OpenAI are
expected to use the firm’s new flagship chip in cloud-computing services and for their own AI offerings.

It also said the new software tools, called microservices, improve system
efficiency to make it easier for a business to incorporate an AI model into its work.

Other announcements include a new line of chips for cars which can run chatbots
inside the vehicle. The company said Chinese electric vehicle makers BYD and
Xpeng would both use its new chips.”

Q: What about US manufactures of EV?
