Interestingly, NVIDIA and Foxconn had partnered earlier last year, to build AI factories which will help boost EV and autonomous vehicle production. While Tesla is at the forefront of self-driving technology, other companies are emerging in the space. In India, startups such as Swaayatt Robots is said to have achieved level 5 autonomy. NVIDIA’s Rising Growth Basking in the glory of the phenomenal growth in the recent quarter, of posting over 600% profit YoY for the recent quarter, Huang attributed the growth in sales to not just major cloud service providers such as Amazon, Microsoft and Google. He also stated that companies such as Meta, Tesla and even pharmaceutical companies are procuring NVIDIA chips. The recent big tech events saw increasing partnership announcements with NVIDIA with Microsoft even claiming to be among the first cloud providers to offer NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs in B100 and GB200 configurations.
