For some time now, it seems that if a product does not carry the AI label, it is not a valid device for users, even if it does not really have any function. At this rate, we will soon see milk cartons, sausages or even fruit with an AI sticker.
If we talk about Artificial intelligence We must inevitably talk about NVIDIA, a graphics manufacturer that started its business focusing on the world of video games and that, because of the rise of AI, it is focusing its efforts in this area via server GPUs that train language models.
Although the involvement of NVIDIA could be a considerable key in the development of Artificial Intelligence, for many people, this unknown brand. In fact, in the latest survey published among the 100 most recognized brands in the world, NVIDIA does not appear despite being one of the most valuable companies in the world in terms of market capitalization.
So that his boss is not amused by the fact that the NVIDIA brand, in addition to its GeForce division, is unknown to many people in the world and in what seems to be a marketing campaign more than a commercial move, he has added the slogan “Powering Advanced AI” next to the words NVIDIA and GeForce RTX as before.
This slogan will now be displayed both in the laptops as in the Dessert PC already assembled that include some of NVIDIA’s RTX models. In this way, they want to make themselves known as a reference in the field of AI, not only in the field of video games where it is the undisputed king based on the number of Steam users.
NVIDIA RTX: The Best Option for AI Development
NVIDIA’s RTX line of cards, aimed at home use and mainly focused on the enjoyment of video games, is one of the best options currently available on the market for performing tasks associated with artificial intelligence.
A few months ago, Qualcomm launched its range of ARM processors with a Neural processing unit to perform AI tasks locally. This type of processor was specifically created to reduce the power consumption of GPUs when performing such tasks.
However, the performance they offer is far below that of any NVIDIA or even AMD graphics card. In fact, a RTX 2060 It has more tensor cores to perform AI, although the consumption of this graphics card is much higher than that of any NPU that can be found in a laptop.
NVIDIA’s RTX lineup uses artificial intelligence to improve graphics performance in video games like the DLSS which uses artificial intelligence and deep learning to resize images increased graphics quality and performance.
In addition, it has the application ChatRTXan NVIDIA application that allows users to create their own AI chatbots by training them with specific content and, what’s more, it runs locally, so an internet connection is not required.
