Nvidia reveals AI training tech and gaming chips

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.
