Nvidia CEO pitches robotics, cars as growth areas to consumer-electronics audience
Live MintNvidia chief Jensen Huang held forth at a consumer-electronics showcase in Nevada on Monday, touting his inroads in AI agents, self-driving cars and robotics on a day when his company’s valuation reached its highest level. Taking the stage at the annual CES conference in Las Vegas, Huang showed “physical AI" tools that he said would help robots learn using simulated environments that closely mimic the real world. In the address, which followed a trading session that sent Nvidia’s value to $3.66 trillion, Huang also highlighted how the company was fast making inroads in the auto industry. The company reports automotive revenue in its financial results, and brought in $1.1 billion in its last full fiscal year, but Huang’s $5 billion figure included sales of other products and services to the industry.
