WEBVTT

00:00:01.430 --> 00:00:04.757
Thank you so much
for being at Build again.

00:00:04.840 --> 00:00:07.157
I know it's late for you in Taipei.

00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:09.510
I really appreciate you staying up.

00:00:10.440 --> 00:00:17.167
You know, at the end, I've been looking
at social and you know, and everything

00:00:17.250 --> 00:00:20.567
people have been talking about
since your keynote over the weekend.

00:00:20.650 --> 00:00:26.107
And suddenly, you know,
this concept of unmetered intelligence

00:00:26.190 --> 00:00:29.447
right at the edge is so hot again.

00:00:29.530 --> 00:00:31.217
So maybe you want to talk a little bit.

00:00:31.300 --> 00:00:33.217
You've thought about this,
talked about this.

00:00:33.300 --> 00:00:37.287
And now of course with RTX
Spark really delivered,

00:00:37.370 --> 00:00:42.257
I think what's a breakthrough system
for AI to be much more ubiquitous.

00:00:42.340 --> 00:00:46.097
But maybe Jensen, you can just share
a little bit your vision around where

00:00:46.180 --> 00:00:47.310
you see this going.

00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:50.837
Well, this all started
about three years ago

00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:55.107
between a conversation between you
and I, and we were talking about how

00:00:55.190 --> 00:00:58.207
we could build a new class of PCs.

00:00:58.290 --> 00:01:02.717
That's incredible for designers
and creators, and it would be incredible

00:01:02.800 --> 00:01:06.087
for artificial intelligence.
And it would be one of these systems

00:01:06.170 --> 00:01:11.117
that has the processing capability,
but also the software stack

00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:15.127
that's integrated into the world's
design packages and creator packages

00:01:15.210 --> 00:01:17.627
and of course, all the things
that we're doing with AI.

00:01:17.710 --> 00:01:23.167
And here we are three years later,
we built an incredible new chip.

00:01:23.250 --> 00:01:29.107
And this system is supported
by all of this new software

00:01:29.190 --> 00:01:33.677
that you created for Windows. And we
now have the ability to have essentially

00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:37.530
an autonomous agent running on the PC.

00:01:37.800 --> 00:01:41.347
Now, when you take a step back and you
think about what does that mean?

00:01:41.430 --> 00:01:45.557
For the 40 years, that or some 30
years we've been working together,

00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:52.557
we went from inventing DirectX
together to creating now

00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:56.437
this incredible computer that has
autonomous systems running.

00:01:56.520 --> 00:02:01.667
The PC evolved from being
an incredible tool

00:02:01.750 --> 00:02:06.677
to now being a tool that's used
autonomously by an AI assistant.

00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:11.747
And so the idea that I could be
traveling and I'm on the phone

00:02:11.830 --> 00:02:16.757
and I could text my PC and ask
my PC to get some coding done

00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:21.970
or some idea that I have, and it
would fire up the tools on the PC,

00:02:22.380 --> 00:02:26.597
and it would make the modifications
or the changes or the design that I was,

00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:32.197
I told it to to do, and it would iterate
with me while I'm away from the PC.

00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:35.807
My PC became an assistant.
While I'm sitting there, of course,

00:02:35.890 --> 00:02:38.137
this PC would be my great
assistant as well.

00:02:38.220 --> 00:02:44.117
And so this idea that that the PC
evolved from a personal computer

00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:47.547
to a personal AI,
it's just really exciting.

00:02:47.630 --> 00:02:52.887
And to see it come to life, Satya, to see
it come to life and actually doing that,

00:02:52.970 --> 00:02:54.727
you know, so I'm super excited about it.

00:02:54.810 --> 00:02:59.597
Spark, as you mentioned earlier,
has all this incredible capabilities,

00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:05.367
a petaflop of AI performance.
It has a petaflop of NVFP4,

00:03:05.450 --> 00:03:09.007
this numerical format that our two
companies worked on together.

00:03:09.090 --> 00:03:15.047
That allows us to take advantage
of this 128GB of memory and fit

00:03:15.130 --> 00:03:18.577
maybe a couple of hundred
billion parameter model.

00:03:18.660 --> 00:03:21.917
A couple of hundred billion
parameter model is state of the art.

00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:25.957
And so I think the days of having
a really smart assistant running

00:03:26.040 --> 00:03:27.727
autonomously on the PC is here.

00:03:27.810 --> 00:03:31.097
Yeah, I know it's so awesome. And in fact,
I'm also excited about Windows

00:03:31.180 --> 00:03:36.567
coming to the GB300. And so that's another
thing that it's kind of like data center

00:03:36.650 --> 00:03:38.797
right on your desktop.
And it's so exciting.

00:03:38.880 --> 00:03:45.037
But talking about that data center side,
obviously, you know, this entire thing

00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:48.447
got started when we built
the first supercomputer

00:03:48.530 --> 00:03:51.377
together to train the GPT models.

00:03:51.460 --> 00:03:56.117
And we have come a long way. In fact, even
I was talking about the Fairwater design.

00:03:56.200 --> 00:04:02.527
It was custom built essentially for the
Grace Blackwell era to be able to max the

00:04:02.610 --> 00:04:05.997
the data center design
with the system design you had.

00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:08.267
And now, of course,
we're validating Vera Rubin.

00:04:08.350 --> 00:04:11.497
We're very excited about it. Maybe you
want to share a little bit about sort of

00:04:11.580 --> 00:04:15.337
what happens, even on the cloud
side, with how you're pushing

00:04:15.420 --> 00:04:20.147
on the systems innovation.
Well, our journey is incredible.

00:04:20.230 --> 00:04:24.917
We built the first AI supercomputer
together that was based on Ampere.

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.317
Of course, Hopper
was an incredible success.

00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:30.487
The first two generations
were focused on pre-training.

00:04:30.570 --> 00:04:36.997
Grace Blackwell came along and all
of the focus moved to post training,

00:04:37.080 --> 00:04:41.167
reinforcement learning, which
allowed us to have reasoning models.

00:04:41.250 --> 00:04:44.297
And these reasoning models,
based on mixture of experts,

00:04:44.380 --> 00:04:50.577
were incredibly intelligent, energy
efficient, but it requires giant systems.

00:04:50.660 --> 00:04:56.447
And so we created NVLink72 and the
entire rack became one computer.

00:04:56.530 --> 00:04:59.887
We had evolved from one
node to now one rack.

00:04:59.970 --> 00:05:00.803
Well,

00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:07.287
Microsoft deployed the largest number
of Grace Blackwells in the world

00:05:07.370 --> 00:05:11.657
today, the fastest and the largest
number of Grace Blackwells in the world.

00:05:11.740 --> 00:05:15.927
Fairwater is just
a magnificent system to look at.

00:05:16.010 --> 00:05:18.197
It's just a miracle of engineering.

00:05:18.280 --> 00:05:22.167
It's just an incredible feat.
It's completely liquid cooled.

00:05:22.250 --> 00:05:25.037
You mentioned something earlier
that I'm very proud of as well,

00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:28.917
that it's closed looped,
basically uses almost no water,

00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:33.487
and it's incredibly environmentally
friendly. It's energy efficient.

00:05:33.570 --> 00:05:37.717
We're able to increase the token
generation rate and reduce

00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:43.697
the cost of token generation by an order
of magnitude, some 30 times over Hopper.

00:05:43.780 --> 00:05:45.597
So that was a huge achievement.

00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:52.467
Well, Vera Rubin was created for a world
where these AIs are now agentic.

00:05:52.550 --> 00:05:55.907
And so where as Hopper
was created for pretraining, Grace

00:05:55.990 --> 00:06:00.047
Blackwell for training,
post training and also inference.

00:06:00.130 --> 00:06:03.417
Vera Rubin is designed to run agents.

00:06:03.500 --> 00:06:06.917
It's agents. As you know,
this computing pattern

00:06:07.000 --> 00:06:11.687
is exactly the same computing pattern
we're going to run on the RTX Spark.

00:06:11.770 --> 00:06:15.727
It's exactly the same agentic system,
except of course, it's going to be much,

00:06:15.810 --> 00:06:20.427
much larger when process enormous
number of them simultaneously.

00:06:20.510 --> 00:06:23.167
Many of them are going to be
from different customers

00:06:23.250 --> 00:06:24.697
and different different partners.

00:06:24.780 --> 00:06:31.107
And so the entire path, the entire coding
path from storage, which is the long

00:06:31.190 --> 00:06:34.877
term memory, the working
memory is encrypted,

00:06:34.960 --> 00:06:38.047
the data is encrypted in transit.

00:06:38.130 --> 00:06:40.147
The data is also encrypted in use.

00:06:40.230 --> 00:06:42.717
And so we've we're
going to really innovate

00:06:42.800 --> 00:06:44.717
in the area of confidential computing.

00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:49.097
And so this entire disaggregated
distributed computing system

00:06:49.180 --> 00:06:53.997
you mentioned CPUs. Vera is a
revolutionary CPU designed for agents.

00:06:54.080 --> 00:06:56.437
You know, the past CPUs
were designed for humans.

00:06:56.520 --> 00:06:59.707
And, you know, we're just more
patient than than agents are.

00:06:59.790 --> 00:07:04.977
And agents want low latency,
just as if you've been working on as well.

00:07:05.060 --> 00:07:07.447
And Vera is designed
for extremely low latency.

00:07:07.530 --> 00:07:10.447
And so Vera Rubin is just
completely revolutionary.

00:07:10.530 --> 00:07:12.877
I can't wait to show it to everybody.

00:07:12.960 --> 00:07:14.687
You've already stood it up. Yep.

00:07:14.770 --> 00:07:18.017
Our two teams, our two teams
have been working very closely.

00:07:18.100 --> 00:07:23.757
And, you know, almost long before
the chips taped out, long before

00:07:23.840 --> 00:07:27.227
the systems were brought up, our two
teams were already completely aligned.

00:07:27.310 --> 00:07:31.067
And so the design, the data
centers were created for Vera Rubin.

00:07:31.150 --> 00:07:34.507
The Vera Rubin is designed
and integrated into your complete stack,

00:07:34.590 --> 00:07:36.577
into your networking into your security.

00:07:36.660 --> 00:07:40.507
And so the moment that our systems
were rolling off the lines,

00:07:40.590 --> 00:07:42.607
they were being stood up at Microsoft.

00:07:42.690 --> 00:07:45.247
So I'm incredibly excited
about the collaboration.

00:07:45.330 --> 00:07:49.317
Yeah, I know this speed of light execution
between the teams is fantastic to see.

00:07:49.400 --> 00:07:53.957
And of course, all this is to power
the ecosystem around us, right?

00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:58.697
I mean, you and I, having grown up
with the PC, the server and now with AI,

00:07:58.780 --> 00:08:02.627
have always thought about ultimately
it's about creating the opportunity

00:08:02.710 --> 00:08:06.467
for every developer, every organization
to build on the work that we do

00:08:06.550 --> 00:08:10.737
and the platforms we create. In speaking
of that, there's a lot of software

00:08:10.820 --> 00:08:14.147
that Nvidia builds.
That's all also coming.

00:08:14.230 --> 00:08:17.917
For example, we're going to have your
models in Foundry your tooling in Foundry.

00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.917
We're going to have, in fact,
your software even help us

00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:25.657
with accelerating our workloads when
it comes to even the data warehouse.

00:08:25.740 --> 00:08:28.627
We're going to obviously
have stuff in Windows.

00:08:28.710 --> 00:08:33.627
Just talk a little bit about that broader
vision of what does it mean for us,

00:08:33.710 --> 00:08:36.097
an opportunity, right.
Because everybody talks about this

00:08:36.180 --> 00:08:42.007
one model or one piece of tech, but it's
about the broadest, biggest opportunity

00:08:42.090 --> 00:08:47.107
for people to create value. Maybe you
want to share a little bit about that.

00:08:47.190 --> 00:08:49.207
Well, we've been
preparing for this moment.

00:08:49.290 --> 00:08:51.577
You know what happened
in the last several months.

00:08:51.660 --> 00:08:56.287
We've been working for a decade and a
half together, getting ready for really

00:08:56.370 --> 00:08:57.787
what happened in the last several months.

00:08:57.870 --> 00:09:01.827
All of a sudden, because of agentic
systems, the convergence of these

00:09:01.910 --> 00:09:05.257
really great models, AI is now useful.

00:09:05.340 --> 00:09:12.267
If you just look at GitHub,
the the commits into GitHub is gone

00:09:12.350 --> 00:09:17.237
completely parabolic. In the last
several months, the number of commits

00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.437
increased by a factor of three.

00:09:19.520 --> 00:09:22.617
It's clear that agentic
systems are useful,

00:09:22.700 --> 00:09:28.647
that it's doing productive work, and also
tokens are now profitable as a result.

00:09:28.730 --> 00:09:31.617
And so the amount of demand for compute

00:09:31.700 --> 00:09:37.627
between the usage of the AI and the
computation that's necessary for agents,

00:09:37.710 --> 00:09:40.127
the compute demand has
really gone through the roof.

00:09:40.210 --> 00:09:44.497
Well, one of the things that we've been
we've been doing together is making sure

00:09:44.580 --> 00:09:48.907
that all of the tools that the agents
are going to use are fully accelerated.

00:09:48.990 --> 00:09:51.937
Fabric, for example,
is now fully accelerated.

00:09:52.020 --> 00:09:57.477
We're accelerating data
processing, SQL, Spark,

00:09:57.560 --> 00:10:02.047
semantic based vector,
vector based, graph based.

00:10:02.130 --> 00:10:05.417
We're going to make sure that all
of the tools that are available on Azure

00:10:05.500 --> 00:10:08.587
are going to be fully GPU
accelerated, because the agents

00:10:08.670 --> 00:10:11.427
are going to be impatient.
The faster we can get the answers

00:10:11.510 --> 00:10:15.767
back to the agents, the faster they can
iterate, the faster can generate tokens,

00:10:15.850 --> 00:10:19.837
which are ultimately what the developers
both of our customers would like

00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:22.837
to do is generate a lot of tokens
that are really profitable,

00:10:22.920 --> 00:10:25.077
that are highly intelligent. Now.

00:10:25.160 --> 00:10:28.647
Thank you so much, Jensen,
for the partnership and the leadership

00:10:28.730 --> 00:10:33.717
and the innovation that you bring to
this entire ecosystem, and really thrilled

00:10:33.800 --> 00:10:38.187
to be working closely with you and the
team and bring all this to the developers

00:10:38.270 --> 00:10:42.927
here and beyond, and look forward
to seeing what the next few months

00:10:43.010 --> 00:10:45.627
and the next year bring
in terms of the innovation

00:10:45.710 --> 00:10:48.097
that gets built on top of the platform.

00:10:48.180 --> 00:10:52.237
So thank you again for joining
this late in the night from Taipei.

00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.837
Thank you so much Satya for your
partnership and friendship. Thank you.

00:10:55.920 --> 00:10:56.753
Thank you.
