Nvidia showcases AI training tech, RTX 50 gaming chips, desktop for developers, and Toyota partnership at CES 2025.

Nvidia introduced new technologies at CES 2025, including advancements in artificial intelligence aimed at improving robot and vehicle training.

CEO Jensen Huang highlighted the company’s new Cosmos foundation models, which generate synthetic training videos for robots and self-driving cars. This innovative approach allows systems to learn about the physical world, significantly reducing costs associated with traditional data collection methods.

The Cosmos models will be available under an open license, reminiscent of Meta’s Llama 3 language models. Huang compared its potential impact on robotics and industrial AI to that of Llama 3 on enterprise AI.

Nvidia unveiled its new RTX 50 series gaming chips that enhance video game graphics by improving realistic depictions of characters and objects. These chips will be priced between £549 and £1,999, with various models set to launch throughout January and February.

Nvidia also presented its first desktop computer, named Project DIGITS, designed primarily for programmers. This machine, priced at £3,000, uses a specialized Nvidia chip and is expected to launch in March.

Toyota will incorporate Nvidia’s Orin chips into several vehicle models, boosting Nvidia’s revenue projections for automotive technology to £5 billion in fiscal 2026.

EU probes Meta’s WhatsApp AI chatbot policy for potential antitrust violations affecting third-party developers and competition.


The European Commission has opened an antitrust investigation into Meta over WhatsApp’s new AI chatbot policy. The inquiry examines whether the policy restricts third-party AI developers from accessing WhatsApp’s business tools, potentially breaching EU competition rules.

Meta updated its terms, effective January 2026, which have already barred new AI providers since October 15. The rules prohibit AI developers from using WhatsApp as their primary service, affecting a number of AI companies looking to integrate with the platform.

The EU’s competition commissioner is considering interim measures to ensure fair competition. If Meta is found in violation, it could face fines of up to 10% of its global annual revenue.
