Nvidia (NVDA) kicks disconnected its yearly GTC league connected March 18 with a keynote by CEO Jensen Huang from the SAP Center successful San Jose, Calif. The event, which runs done March 21, volition diagnostic workshops and grooming for developers and engineers, panels and discussions related to AI and robotics, and exhibits from companies showing disconnected however they're utilizing Nvidia's products successful the existent world.

Huang is expected to debut the company's latest flagship AI chip: the Blackwell Ultra. A souped-up mentation of Nvidia's existing Blackwell chip, Blackwell Ultra should get a show boost implicit past year's spot to further velocity up grooming and moving AI models.

We should besides larn much astir Nvidia's next-generation GPU platform, dubbed Rubin, and the successor to its Grace enactment of CPUs, Vera. The combined superchip volition beryllium called Vera Rubin, named for the American astronomer, and volition instrumentality the spot of the existent Grace Blackwell superchip astatine the apical of Nvidia's hierarchy of AI processors.

During Nvidia's 4th fourth net call, Huang teased that he'd besides sermon the follow-up to Rubin. Nvidia, similar astir spot companies, is known for providing a wide look astatine its roadmap to assistance customers and developers hole for their upcoming products.

In summation to Nvidia's aboriginal chips, Huang volition dive into the company's latest bundle updates astir its CUDA platform, simulation technologies, and more. During past year's event, Haung talked up Nvidia's bundle efforts astir humanoid robots.

And with the institution acceptable to big a sheet dedicated to the topic, you tin expect the CEO to supply adjacent much details astir Nvidia's propulsion into the humanoid robotics race.

The institution volition besides big its archetypal Quantum Day during GTC, which volition see a sheet treatment betwixt Huang and executives from quantum computing companies including Alice & Bob, D-Wave (QBTS), IonQ (IONQ), Rigetti (RGTI), and SEEQC.

Huang made waves successful January erstwhile helium said applicable quantum computers are inactive betwixt 15 and 30 years distant from becoming a reality, sending quantum computing stocks lower. Amazon (AMZN), Microsoft (MSFT), and Google (GOOG, GOOGL) each announced their ain quantum computing chips implicit the past fewer months, driving accrued involvement successful the technology.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai says applicable quantum computers are apt 5 to 10 years away.

Predicting erstwhile aboriginal technologies volition scope maturity is simply a fraught exercise, and adjacent quantum computing scientists are torn implicit erstwhile a quantum machine volition beryllium genuinely useful. Still, the speech betwixt Huang and leaders astatine quantum companies should beryllium interesting.
