This Spring Astronomy Day, here’s a look at how AI and GPUs are helping astronomers work through unprecedented volumes of cosmic data.

Manufacturing is at an inflection point. Across every major industrial economy, the pressure to do more with less — due to faster design cycles, leaner operations and strain on skilled labor pools — is accelerating the shift to AI-driven production.  The question is no longer whether to adopt AI, bu...

Traditional data centers only stored, retrieved and processed data. In the generative and agentic AI era, these facilities have evolved into AI token factories. With AI inference becoming their primary workload, their primary output is intelligence manufactured in the form of tokens.  This transform...

The NAB Show 2026 trade show, running April 18-22 in Las Vegas, is set to showcase a wave of new features and optimizations for top video editing applications. Bringing together over 60,000 content professionals from across the broadcast and media and entertainment industries, the event highlights h...

A dozen new games are available to stream this week, including Arknights: En...

CERAWeek — dubbed the Davos of energy — is where policymakers, producers, technologists and financiers gather to discuss how the world powers itself next.  NVIDIA and Emerald AI unveiled at the conference last week a new way forward — treating AI factories not as static power loads but as flexible, ...

At the half-time whistle of the UEFA EURO 2020 round of 16 football match between England and Germany, millions of viewers stepped away from their screens in the U.K. to do the same thing at the same time — turn on their kettles. National Grid, which provides electricity for England and Wales, saw a...

It’s a double feature on GFN Thursday. This week, GeForce NOW offers smoother sights in virtual reality (VR) and a sprawling new land to conquer. Streaming at 90 frames per second (fps) comes to supported VR headsets. And Crimson Desert, which recently surpassed 3 million wishlist additions on Steam...

The latest open models and frameworks from NVIDIA bring together simulation, robot learning and embedded compute to accelerate cloud-to-robot workflows.

NVIDIA and Apple’s collaboration brings native integration of NVIDIA CloudXR 6.0 to visionOS, securely delivering NVIDIA RTX-powered simulators and professional 3D graphics applications — like Immersive for Autodesk VRED on Innoactive’s XR streaming solutions — to Apple Vision Pro.

The features on social media apps like Snapchat evolve nearly as fast as what’s trending. To keep pace, its parent company Snap has adopted open data processing libraries from NVIDIA on Google Cloud services to boost development.  Every new feature rolled out to Snapchat’s more than 940 million mont...

Roche's new deployment spans more than 3,500 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs across its worldwide operations and embedded across the entire value chain, massively scaling R&D productivity, next-generation diagnostics and manufacturing efficiencies.

Setting up AI factories in simulation — decreasing deployment time from months to days — is  accelerating the next industrial revolution.  Nowhere was that more apparent than at GTC 2026, in San Jose, where NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang introduced NVIDIA DSX Air. Part of NVIDIA DSX Sim in the ...

Rolling coverage from San Jose, including NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang’s keynote, news highlights, live demos and on‑the‑ground color through March 20.

Game development teams are working across larger worlds, more complex pipelines and more distributed teams than ever. At the same time, many studios still rely on fixed, desk-bound GPU hardware for critical production work. At the Game Developers Conference (GDC) this week in San Francisco, NVIDIA i...

AI is everywhere and accelerating everything — becoming essential infrastructure to create the intelligence that will advance every industry. That’s why companies are increasingly focusing on the technology’s return on investment (ROI), as well as how to best apply AI to their own use cases. NVIDIA’...

Lilly this week launched the most powerful AI factory wholly owned and operated by a pharmaceutical company to help its teams make meaningful medical advancements faster, more accurately and at unprecedented scale. Dubbed LillyPod, it’s the world’s first NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD with DGX B300 systems.

AI is accelerating every aspect of healthcare — from radiology and drug discovery to medical device manufacturing and new treatment methods enabled by digital twins of the human body. NVIDIA’s second annual “State of AI in Healthcare and Life Sciences” survey report reveals how the industry is movin...

As technologies and systems become more digitalized and connected across the world, operational technology (OT) environments and industrial control systems (ICS) — from energy and manufacturing to transportation and utilities — are increasingly depending on enterprise networks and the cloud. This ex...

The GeForce NOW anniversary celebration keeps on rolling, and this week is all about the games that make it possible.
