Nvidia founder Jensen Huang said that artificial intelligence was being used to accelerate computer chip manufacturing and create advanced microprocessors.
Speaking to the gathered throngs that the Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre’s flagship annual shindig, ITF World, Huang said the exponential performance increases in central processing units were the governing dynamic in the tech industry for almost four decades.
He said that the rate at which CPUs become more efficient and powerful was slowing as it becomes exponentially more difficult to squeeze more transistors onto silicon wafers.
Meanwhile, demand for more advanced computing hardware is soaring and global demand for cloud computing is causing data centre power consumption to rocket, Huang said.
