Nvidia overtakes Apple and Microsoft as the most valuable publicly listed company in the world. Why is Nvidia so valuable? In short, Nvidia makes computer chips crucial for video games, artificial intelligence (AI), and big data center operations. These chips are the “brains” used in machines ranging from smart cars and advanced medical technology to popular video games. Increasing demand for AI across various sectors, including automotive, healthcare, and technology, has driven significant investment and interest in Nvidia's products. 1. AI and Deep Learning: Nvidia is a leading provider of graphics processing units (GPUs) which are crucial for artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning applications. 2. Gaming Industry: Nvidia's GPUs are key components in gaming, a market that has seen substantial growth. Innovations in gaming technology, including ray tracing and AI-driven graphics, have made Nvidia's products highly desirable among consumers. 3. Data Centers and Cloud Computing: Nvidia has capitalized on the growth of cloud computing and data centers. Their GPUs are not only used in personal computers but are also in data centers for tasks like machine learning, data analysis, and cloud-based computing services. 4. Strategic Acquisitions: Nvidia has made strategic acquisitions that expand its market influence and capabilities, further driving its valuation. For example, its intent to acquire Arm Holdings was seen as a move that could potentially reshape the semiconductor industry. While Nvidia’s stock rises sharply due to these factors, Microsoft will remain as a larger company by most financial metrics, including revenue, profit, and overall market capitalization over the long term. History of Nvidia- Nvidia Corporation is a technology company that designs and manufactures graphics processing units (GPUs) and other AI technology. The company was founded in April 1993 by Jen-Hsun "Jensen" Huang, Chris Malachowsky, and Curtis Priem, who believed that a dedicated GPU was needed to advance computer graphics. At the time, computer games were CPU-based, but 3D graphics required more floating-point math processing than the CPU's math coprocessor could handle. The founders named their files NV, which stood for "next version", and started the company with $40,000 in funding #AI #Technology #Education #Data #Innovation

The Nvidia Era has started as Wall Street has voted with its money: "Nvidia has soared to become the most valuable public company in the world, about two weeks after beating Apple to become the world’s second most valuable company. On Tuesday, shares of Nvidia surged by 3.6%, propelling its market capitalization to an unprecedented $3.34 trillion. This surge allowed Nvidia to surpass Microsoft, now valued at $3.32 trillion." Many centuries ago, Greek Philosophers postulated on the material component of the universe. Pythagoras explained that the universe is nothing but numbers. If our world is made up of numbers, common extrapolation posits that making sense of numbers will be a great business since the world is numbers. Yes, across human history, the greatest empires have been built around tools, mechanisms, systems, etc which make it easier to compute, process, manipulate, and make sense of numbers. Nvidia has entered the temple  and its era has started.
