Episode notes
NVIDIA's Evolution
- NVIDIA evolved from a gaming hardware company to an AI leader.
- Their GPUs, initially designed for 3D graphics, became crucial for deep learning after the introduction of CUDA.
Software Writing Software
- Deep learning algorithms write software based on examples, not human instructions.
- AlexNet's success in image classification marked a turning point.
Bridging Bits and Atoms
- The physical world (atoms) represents a much larger market than the digital world (bits).
- Robotics bridges this gap, connecting computing to physical industries.
