As AI has evolved from a “nice to have” to an “absolute necessity” for businesses to stay afloat, this ever-evolving technology is expected to contribute a staggering $407 billion to the global economy by 2027. In addition to its contribution to healthcare, education and transportation, this technology has given rise to an industry that is commoditizing AI models by providing an open ecosystem across compute and foundation models. This allows companies to move between different AI infrastructures and models, so that they can pick and choose which vendor is best for them at what point in time. At the helm of this transformation is a company called Together AI, founded in June 2022 and has already raised $102.5M by topline investors such as NVIDIA. #aiinnovation #aibusiness

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang says the level of computing performance is about to grow exponentially during the coming decade, enabling new AI innovations and capabilities. “Over the next ten years, our hope is that we could double or triple performance every year at scale.” “I wouldn’t be surprised, if the way people think about Moore’s Law which is 2X every couple years, we’re going to be on some kind of hyper Moore’s Law curve.” “When you double or triple every year in just a few years it adds up. It compounds really, really aggressively.” “The scale of the problems we could address has changed a lot, we set ourselves up to be able to scale computing and develop software at a level nobody has ever imagined before.” #ai #aifactory #digitalinfrastructure
