Advancing Autonomous Vehicles and Enterprise AI
In the transportation sector, Nvidia is collaborating with Uber to develop Level 4 autonomous vehicles.
Nvidia’s new Drive Hyperion offers a reference compute and sensor architecture that enables vehicle manufacturers to create models ready for robotaxi deployment.
Dara Khosrowshahi, CEO of Uber, states: “Nvidia is the backbone of the AI era, and is now fully leveraging that innovation to unleash L4 autonomy at a massive scale, while facilitating the deployment of Nvidia-empowered AVs on Uber.
“Autonomous mobility will enhance our cities, and we’re excited to partner with Nvidia to help turn that vision into reality.”
Uber plans to deploy 100,000 autonomous vehicles by 2027 using a joint AI factory built on the Nvidia Cosmos platform.
Additionally, Nvidia announces a partnership with Palantir to create an integrated operational AI technology stack.
This collaboration will merge Nvidia’s accelerated computing CUDA-X libraries and open-source Nemotron models within Palantir’s Ontology framework.
“Palantir is dedicated to deploying AI that provides immediate, asymmetric value to our customers,” says Alex Karp, Co-Founder and CEO of Palantir Technologies.
“We are proud to partner with Nvidia to integrate our AI-driven decision intelligence systems with the world’s most advanced AI infrastructure.”
Nvidia also introduces Omniverse DSX, a stack designed to support the construction of AI factories.
These partnerships and systems suggest that Nvidia is expanding its influence from chip manufacturing into telecommunications, transportation, national research, and enterprise AI infrastructure, shaping the architecture of the AI era.
