Delays to Nvidia’s next-generation artificial intelligence processor will not derail the chipmaker’s plans to produce a new version of its flagship product every year, chief executive Jensen Huang told the Financial Times.
A production issue affecting Blackwell, Nvidia’s hotly anticipated new chip platform, “doesn’t matter” to its plan to accelerate its release schedule from every two years to a “one-year rhythm”, Huang said, after announcing the ambitious new schedule last October.
Nvidia’s accelerated pace of innovation is seen as key to maintaining its dominance of AI chips, in a market estimated to be worth hundreds of billions of dollars over the coming years.
