Nvidia Will Spend $26B to Build Open-Weight AI Models

2 days ago

Nvidia plans to invest $26 billion over five years to build open-source AI models.
The investment aims to position Nvidia as a competitor to OpenAI and DeepSeek.
Nvidia released Nemotron 3 Super, its most advanced open-weight AI model with 128 billion parameters.
Nemotron 3 Super outperforms GPT-OSS and other models in benchmarks like the Artificial Intelligence Index.
Nvidia introduced technical innovations to improve reasoning, long-context handling, and reinforcement learning in Nemotron 3.
Meta and OpenAI have released open models, but Chinese models like DeepSeek and Alibaba's Qwen are gaining global traction.
Nvidia's open models may help maintain its dominance in AI hardware amid competition from Chinese alternatives.
DeepSeek's upcoming model, rumored to use Huawei chips, could challenge Nvidia's hardware dominance.
Nvidia's investment in open models could influence US-China AI competition.
Experts suggest US government funding for open models to counterbalance Chinese advancements.
