Nvidia

The chip maker whose GPUs power most AI training and a lot of AI at home.

Nvidia designs the graphics processors (GPUs) that turned out to be ideal for training and running AI models. Almost every large model you read about was trained on Nvidia hardware, which has made the company one of the most valuable in the world.

For readers running AI locally, Nvidia matters in a practical way: a consumer Nvidia card in your PC is still the most common way to run open models at decent speed.
